TurboTax never tells you that your return was "approved." TT only tells you if the return was "accepted"---which is not the same thing.
What does it say on the page of filing instructions that prints with your return---what does it say you chose to do to pay your state tax due?
You must pay your state tax due using the state’s preferred method of receiving payment. For most states that will be by making a payment to the state’s own tax website, or by mailing a check or money order.
