Test an account in your domain here:

And let's see what it brings.
1- In the Exchange Admin Center select the certificate that has the status of “Pending request”, have you clicked the Complete link.and completed the all process ..

2-Have you renewed SSL Cert ? Or created new SSL Cert Request ?
Note: Be sure to follow up with GoDaddy support on this.

If the problem is GoDaddy is having problems verifying your right to request a cert for a given domain, you'll have to go through some domain authentication/verification step.

Until you complete the domain authentication/verification step you cert issuance will remain deferred/pending.

Since the LetsEncrypt client verifies domain ownership, on the fly, by writing a token file into the domain/host DocumentRoot, this is why LetsEncrypt certs generate in a few seconds.
Where does it say Pending? In Exchange? Did GoDaddy issue the cert? Did you complete the request via the EAC?
