Ok, I have successfully e-filed and and my 2021 federal return was accepted. I'm looking at my return now. But where is that page saying "This return is E-filed"? How to tell if return is e-filed? Where is proof? where are these electronic signatures and stamps?

Did you e-file? Did you click a big orange button that said “Transmit my returns now?”

When you e-file your federal return you will receive two emails from TurboTax. The first one will say that your return was submitted. The second email will tell you if your federal return was accepted or rejected. If you e-filed a state return, there will be a third email to tell you if the state accepted or rejected your state return.

First, check your e-file status to see if your return was accepted:

https://turbotax.intuit.com/tax-tools/efile-status-lookup/

If the IRS accepted it, what does it say here?

https://www.irs.gov/refunds

Or does your account say “Ready to Mail?”

Note: If it says “Ready to Mail” or “Printed” that means YOU have to mail it yourself. TurboTax does not mail your tax return for you.

When you print your return there will be a page that is the electronic postmark--certificate of electronic filing

Yes I have successfully e-filed and my federal and state returns are accepted! I have printed my returns. WHERE IS THE PAGE WITH "electronic postmark--certificate of electronic filing"? There is no such page

Or should I just wait till appears in my pdf? Maybe it's too early?
