You messed up.   A 2019 refund was forfeited over a year ago.  The IRS will not pay it.  If you incorrectly used the current online software and filed a tax return using a 2019 W-2 instead of a 2023 W-2, your return will likely go under review and then they will not pay the refund.  If somehow you squeak it though and they do not catch it....someday they probably will and you will have to pay back the refund.

 

Are you sure the IRS says "approved"?    TurboTax tells you an e-file is "accepted" ---but "accepted" and "approved" are not the same thing.

Yes, you are right. It says accepted, not aprooved
