How do I know if my federal tax payment went through?

As long as you filed your return or extension on or before May 17, 2021 and you selected May 17, 2021 (or earlier) as your payment date, you won't get penalized for late payment.

 

In the meantime, keep an eye on your bank account — if you still don't see the debit 7–10 days after your return has been accepted, call IRS e-file Payment Services at 1-888-353-4537.

I still have not received confirmation that my Federal and State Tax documents went through via email or notification.  I am also unclear if my payment method went through.  It has been 3 days and no money has been pulled from my account.  My return has also not been placed in my account.  I am starting to get nervous I am going to get penalized for this.

I am still not getting an answer.  I filed and there is no Document from Turbo Tax that informs me it is filed.  How do I find out that information without a Turbo Tax confirmation?

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 Orange 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.

 

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.
