I filed my taxes on 2/18 and I received my federal within a few weeks. My state return, however, is still sitting at accepted. I have tried contacting the IRS and the phone hangs up every time. I have not received any letters in the mail. No contact at all. I have also tried the online system and it’s the same information as TurboTax- federal was received and state is still just accepted.

The IRS has nothing to do with your state refund.   Your state return is being processed by your state, and the refund will come from your state--not from the IRS.

 

Federal and state refunds come from completely separate entities,  There is no rule as to which one will come first or how much time there will be between their arrivals.  Some states process returns quickly and some are very slow.
