I completed my taxes on TurboTax back in early March but have not paid the amount I owe.  When are my federal taxes considered filed as far as the IRS is concerned?

There are different ways to pay your taxes and the deadline is now extended to July 15 for payments. Please refer to the article below.

How are my taxes affected by COVID-19?

Are my 2019 taxes considered filed if I have not yet paid the amount I owe for purposes of the new stimulus package?  I understand the government will use my 2018 tax return if 2019 taxes have not been filed.

Yes, as long as your return was accepted by the IRS.  Filing and payment are separate.  You may have filed, but not paid - you have still filed a return in this case.
