TurboTax Filed Return Still Showing Pending - How Long Until Status Changes?

The pending status after filing through TurboTax typically changes within 24-72 hours after the IRS accepts your return. If it's been longer than that, you might want to check your transcript to see if there are any issues flagged. The WMR tool isn't always accurate.

Hey guys just wanted to share something thats been super helpful - I've been using taxr.ai to check my transcripts and it's been a game changer. It costs $1 but tells you exactly whats going on with your refund and when to expect it. way better than playing detective with these codes lol https://taxr.ai

Filed with TT on Jan 29, took about 4 days to change from pending. Got my refund exactly 21 days later

ur lucky mine has been stuck on pending for 2 weeks now 😤

Pro tip: check your bank account not just WMR. Sometimes the money shows up before the status updates lol

Turbotax isn't the issue here - its all about how backed up the IRS is. They're moving slower than molasses this year fr fr

Been there! Filed through TurboTax on Jan 28th and mine stayed pending for about a week before updating. The IRS is definitely processing slower this season - I've seen people waiting 10-14 days just for the status to change from pending to approved. Try not to stress too much, as long as TurboTax confirmed your return was accepted electronically you should be good. The waiting game is brutal though!
