Where did you see the word "approved" for your 2021 refund? TurboTax never tells you that your refund was approved. TT only tells you that your e-file was accepted. "approved" must come from the IRS. Did the IRS refund site say that your 2021 refund was approved? If so, you need to have the refund traced.
