Your EFIN is not approved yet. Please submit or update your EFIN.

I have went to the IRS website and see hat my EFIN has been issued there. I got the EFIN and went to enroll in the Pay-by-refund program. I get this error message:

Your EFIN is not approved yet. Please submit to update your EFIN. Verification takes 24-48 hours. After receiving approval, please try again. If this issue persists, please contact Customer Support and provide error code: 111-2001.

The EFIN looks like it was issued 04/09/21, so I don't know why it is saying not approve. It shows as active on the IRS website when I login. Need assistance.

.... Register your EFIN with Intuit before e-filing. submit IRS current status in my account. you will receive status updates.

As it says, you need to register your EFIN with Intuit.
