eFiled returns not showing as eFiled?

I eFiled two returns on 4/7/2021 at different times. (One 1041 and one 1040) They both came back as Green Thumbs up-submitted. I filed away my 8879s and continued on my merry way.

Today as I was double checking returns for needed extensions and noticed the trust return showing as still needing to be eFiled. I submitted for eFile again and received the message that the IRS is processing a return with that EIN and the submittal failed. A little while later, I noticed the 1040 showing as needing to be eFiled. I tried submitting again and received the message that the IRS is showing that they are processing a a return with that SSN. 

I dug through my 8879s and that is when I realized they were both 4/7/21.

Any idea on how to obtain eFiling confirmation for these two returns that were eFiled but are now not showing as eFiled in the EF center or homebase?

Try highlighting the returns in the EF Center, then select Update Acknowledgment Status
