The IRS shuts down electronic filing in November every year in order to prepare for filing of the next year's returns. It takes them some time. Until they announce the start of filing dates we do not know when they will start accepting returns.
This year they will begin on January 29th (here is the IRS announcement). That date includes the IRS receiving amended tax returns from prior years as well as late returns from prior years.
So your return has definitely not been filed with the IRS yet but it may have been uploaded by TurboTax to wait until the 29th. If your filing status says that it has been sent then you may want to wait until the 29th to see if you get an email regarding the acceptance of the return.
