Accepted means that the IRS has received your refund. Approved means that your return has been fully processed and is approved by the IRS. Once accepted, it can take anywhere from a few days to 3 weeks (21 days) to go from acceptance to approval, and this timeframe is unrelated to how, where, or when you filed, nor is it connected to how quickly you got your refund last year. If your refund is still processing, it has not been approved.
The most accurate place to check your status is the IRS's Where's My Refund? site. You should wait at least 24 hours after filing your return with TurboTax for the IRS's Where's My Refund to update and reflect the status of your return.

I filed on the 14th of march and according to turbo both fed and state has been accepted. However when I check the status on IRS site that was the msg I got. So I'm rather confused
I am having the same problem. My return was apparently accepted on March 15th according to turbo tax. It is now the 27th and IRS website says the same message.
I have no clue what is going on , I'm just getting fed up but I will remain calm
Turns out that for the part that asks for your expected refund amount make sure you're only putting the federal number and not the state
Hey guys now it's saying because of child tax credit I have to wait check back mid February wtf
Mine is still saying this what do I do I filed on Feb 2 2019. Any help ? I haven't received no letters or anything.
