It will say Pending until the IRS either accepts or rejects your return which won't be until after they open on Jan 27, 2021 . Be patient and watch your emails.

 

Even if Turbo Tax lets you submit your return they will just hold all the returns until the IRS opens filing on Jan 27, 2021 or later. So there is no hurry. And a lot of people who file early find out they have to amend later like when they get their actual W2 and 1099 forms. Or they get more forms than they were expecting.

 

Then after the IRS accepts your return they pay most refunds within 21 days.
