Anyone else’s taxes still pending to be accepted and it’s been more than 48 hours.

    Pending simply means that your e-filed return is on its way and that the government hasn't accepted or rejected it yet.

     

    If you e-filed your return before February 12, it'll stay in Pending status until the IRS starts processing the backlog of returns.

     

    After that, e-filed returns generally sit in Pending status for 24–48 hours before coming back as either Accepted or Rejected. Sometimes state returns stay in Pending for several days or even longer.
