I filed Feb 1st. Already got my Federal back but Colorado still shows pending (Feb 20th).

For everyone who has filed your Colorado Tax return and your TT status is showing "Pending" and when you check your Colorado Refund Status it shows "Return Not Received or Not Yet Processed", we are stuck in the "Colorado Black Hole" until they (Colorado) clears the back log.  The latest update from the Colorado Tax Revenue help line is that it could take up to 3 to 4 weeks to clear this backlog.  They recommend NOT to file another return on the Colorado Revenue Tax site in an attempt to game the system.  If you do, your return will likely be delayed further because of duplicate returns.  Unfortunately and as hard as it is to do, we just need to endure the pain and be patient.

I filed 1/31 & to this day my return still shows that it has yet to be received and or processed. On the 1st bar. It says allow 24 to 48 hours to see that it was received. But it's been 3 weeks if u count since the 31st and if ur counting since the 12th that's 8 days now! This has never happened before with just waiting to see if my return is even been received none the less processed. I am quite concerned why there is no progress for anyone commenting on this thread... what is really going on??!

The State of Colorado opened late for accepting returns and they are currently behind in accepting them. Please be patient and allow the State to process the large number of returns that came through to them all at the same time.

Except people who are filing thru the states system are getting approved right away... Soo I think there is a reason to worry

I filed with H&R Block this year on a whim. State return has been filed but not “recieved” on the revenue website. The problem is on the department of revenue’s end.

Colorado started processing returns on February 12 thus there is a backlog of cases to be processed. Meanwhile you can check the progress of your return here by selecting the Where's My Refund Banner.

Mine finally shows received and reviewed this morning. as well.

Just FYI. 

 

Yes, like everyone else it now shows accepted BUT....still a disclosure on time frame. 

 

Your 12/31/2023 return was received on 2/12/2024. Your return is being processed. No action is required by you at this time. Please allow 2-6 weeks for the processing of your return and refund.

Mine was accepted last night. Checked the Colorado Revenue Portal and its checked through the first 3 stages. Just needs to be approved and sent (last stage). Hopefully it will get deposited soon.

They’ve been so slow this year. Usually they’ve been really quick.

I filed Colorado state return on February 12. TurboTax site says February 13, and still pending. I understand there’s a delay, but it has been 9 days! How much longer??

Mine was accepted today. Colorado is behind on a lot of things this year. I finally got my property tax statement yesterday, 2/20. First half payment due in 9 days if I want to split it up. Other Colorado government offices I deal with at work are also backed up due to changes. I guess they are trying, but this wasn't on TurboTax. They did their job.

My return was accepted today!

February 21, 2024

I did my return on Feb. 1st and it was accepted today. Just to keep everyone updated. If you did your taxes around that time you should be getting an acceptance notices soon. 

February 21, 2024

I submitted my return on Feb. 16th and it was accepted today through Turbo Tax via a text message and in the software program. The CO IRS website has not updated my return. One has to wonder why the discrepancy? Perhaps this update is done once a day around midnight like many banks and institutions.

Thank you for today…I called and talked with a customer service staff and they looked into my pending status since 2/2/2024….I was told to allow the State of Colorado one more week.  Within minutes of ending my call my tax return was accepted by the state.

February 22, 2024

Finally tracked the delay to Colorado. They acknowledge getting my return on 1 February and accepting it into their system as of 13 February. It entered into the processing part on 22 February. Unknown as to when I will actually see money.

Other than poor communications with Colorado customers, TT functioned correctly.

February 23, 2024

my state return now shows processing on the Colorado website and TurboTax .. it was transmitted it on 2/1 - which is also when the state says it was received...

Same. Timeline for those for loose comparison. Filed 1/17 - CO got it 2/13 like most people. Was in refund reviewed for a few days. Tonight I just checked after seeing someone said it was sent and now says refund approved and sent.

 

This morning it was still refund reviewed.

 

I should note, however, that it says it was sent on 2/27 to the bank on file. So somehow it's a time traveler 😉
