2024 Return Filed 1/22 - TurboTax Shows Received but Not Accepted - PATH Act Delay?

Filed my taxes through TurboTax on January 22nd. The app shows my return was received but hasnt been accepted yet. I claimed EIC and im wondering if this is just because of the PATH act or if I messed something up on my return. Starting to get worried since other people are getting accepted already.

Tax pro here - This is 100% normal for PATH Act claims. IRS won't begin processing returns with EITC until mid-February. You'll likely see movement around Feb 15th. Nothing to worry about!

Hey guys just wanted to share something thats been super helpful - I found this tool called taxr.ai that analyzes your transcript and tells you exactly whats going on with your refund and when to expect it. Its only $4.99 and saved me hours of stress. They even explain all the PATH act stuff in plain english https://taxr.ai

Its a law that makes IRS hold refunds for people claiming EIC until mid-February. Helps prevent fraud.

Try checking your transcript on the IRS website instead of TT. Sometimes it updates faster there
