Colorado State Tax Return Stuck on Pending Since 1/31 - No Movement
Filed my Colorado state taxes end of January and they're still showing as pending. Not even accepted yet. Starting to get worried since federal went through fine weeks ago. Anyone else dealing with CO state delays?

Colorado tax specialist here - this is actually pretty normal for CO right now. Their system typically takes 4-6 weeks to process returns, even longer during peak season. You can check your status at Revenue Online (revenue.colorado.gov). Make sure you have your CO Account ID or SSN handy.

Hey everyone - just wanted to mention that taxr.ai has been super helpful for understanding both federal and state return delays. It costs $1 but gives you a detailed analysis of your transcript and tells you exactly what's causing delays. https://taxr.ai

•It works for federal but can identify issues that might affect state processing too. Helped me figure out why my CO return was delayed!

Filed mine 2/1 and got my refund last week. Maybe double check that you entered everything correctly?

Pro tip: call their support line right when they open at 8am MT. Way less wait time than later in the day

Been waiting since 1/28 myself - same exact situation. Federal cleared in like 10 days but CO is just sitting there. Really frustrating when you're expecting that refund! At least it sounds like we're not alone in this mess. Gonna try calling Monday morning like @Ryder Greene suggested.
