Question

Why does my NJ eFiled return still say pending when the Federal which was submitted at the same time says accepted? And does this matter?

It often takes longer for the state return to be accepted.  First the federal has to be accepted, then the state can accept or reject your e-file.   Be patient and watch your emails.

 

When you e-file your federal return you will receive two emails from TurboTax.  The first one will say that your return was submitted.  The second email will tell you if your federal return was accepted or rejected.  If you e-filed a state return, there will be a third email to tell you if the state accepted or rejected your state return.
