Did you go all the way through the File tab, through the 3 steps and hit the big orange Transmit Returns Now button?
If you used the Online version you can check your efile status here

When you efile you get back 2 emails. The first email only confirms the transmission. The second email says if the IRS (or state) Accepted or Rejected your efile. And check your spam folder for them.
When you log into your account you should also see the status and if it was Accepted or Rejected, Started, Printed, Ready to Mail, etc. What does it say?
Did you e-file your tax return and was it accepted?
You complete your tax return by finishing all 3 Steps in the File section. In Step 3, to e-file your tax return, you must click on the large button labeled "Transmit my returns now".
After completing the File section and e-filing your tax return you will receive two emails from TurboTax. The first email when your tax return was transmitted and the second email when the tax return has either been accepted or rejected.
Did you receive the emails from TurboTax?
To check the status of an e-filed return, open up your desktop product or log into your TurboTax Online Account. You can find your status within the TurboTax product.
What is the status of your tax return on the TurboTax Tax Home web page?
So I believe I hit the big orange tab, but I don’t 100 percent remember. But it says congrats, taxes are done, and it says printed. But when I download it it says that I need to mail it by the 15th.
If it says Printed then you did not efile.
If it says....... Way to go! You filed your taxes. It means you printed your return and have not efiled.
So if you didn't mail it then it has not been filed yet. And it will always say Ready to Mail. Turbo Tax doesn’t know if or when you mailed it and the IRS doesn’t update Turbo Tax when they get your mailed return.
You can try to switch to efile. Click on Add a State to let you back into your retun. Do not click on Amend!
