You'll need to explain more.   Did you efile and received a definite acceptance notice by email?     Occasionally some filers will pay for their return, but then fail to continue on to answer additional screens including a final screen with a "Transmit Returns Now" button that one has to click.

 

After efiling, you should have received 2 emails--the first saying the return had been transmitted, followed by a later one saying whether it was accepted or rejected.

 

Are you referring to Online TurboTax or desktop software (CD/download)?

 

What tax year?

 

If your efile was successful and accepted, you can present proof to the IRS that your return was accepted by the IRS to at least (hopefully) avoid any late filing penalties, if applicable.

If you used Online TurboTax, log in and in the left menu column go to "Previous Taxes" or scroll down to the section "Your Tax Returns & Documents."

 

Choose the tax year in question.   What is shown for "status?"   Does it say accepted, rejected, started, printed, ready to mail, or what?
