TurboTax does not get any information from the IRS after you file your tax return. It seems that your return is under review, and you will have to watch the IRS refund site for information. If the IRS wants more information from you they will send you a letter. For the time being you just have to wait patiently while they complete their review and process your return. (And...TurboTax did not say your refund was "approved;" TT said your e-file was "accepted"--which is not the same as approved. Only the IRS can approve a refund.)

That is all anyone can tell you at this point.
The IRS is reviewing your return, if the only issue was the minor Social Security error, the review should not take long, but there is no way to give a definitive answer at this point.
