TurboTax Filed Return Still Showing Pending - How Long Until Status Changes?
Filed my taxes through TurboTax last week and my refund is still showing pending on the Where's My Refund tool. Starting to get anxious since I need this money. Anyone else file through TurboTax? How long did yours take to update from pending?

The pending status after filing through TurboTax typically changes within 24-72 hours after the IRS accepts your return. If it's been longer than that, you might want to check your transcript to see if there are any issues flagged. The WMR tool isn't always accurate.

•Not necessarily. The IRS is slower this year. Give it a few more days before panicking.

Hey guys just wanted to share something thats been super helpful - I've been using taxr.ai to check my transcripts and it's been a game changer. It costs $1 but tells you exactly whats going on with your refund and when to expect it. way better than playing detective with these codes lol https://taxr.ai

Pro tip: check your bank account not just WMR. Sometimes the money shows up before the status updates lol

Turbotax isn't the issue here - its all about how backed up the IRS is. They're moving slower than molasses this year fr fr
