I scheduled my tax payment for automatic debit from my bank account and it has not been processed. I'm concerned about it being late even though I filed on time.

    The first page of your tax return PDF is the Filing instructions - that page will show the account and amount you have scheduled.   It normally takes the IRS a few days to take the  payment, but it is effective the date you scheduled it, and confirmed by your e-file acceptance receipt.
