Question

State return still shows "Submitted" (not pending)

For some reason my Maine return is still showing "submitted" 2 days after e-filing. My federal tax return was accepted and marked "pending" within an hour of filing. 

 

I visited the Maine Revenue site and they have no record of my return being e-filed and their FAQ says to check with my tax filing service because they process them immediately upon receipt.

Normally the federal return needs to get accepted before the state will accept the return.  It does not happen immediately.  

 

Why is my state e-file still pending?

Your response stated the obvious and was of no help. Are you just replying to every post to boost your numbers? 

 

Federal accepted in one hour after submission. Maine still in "submitted" status 2 days later.  This is not normal, been using TT for a decade.
