I chose to pay my taxes via direct debit to my checking account. It has not come out of my account. Where can I see proof in Turbo Tax that I chose this option?

I am asking about confirmation from IRS Direct Pay?

If you used IRS Direct Pay from the IRS payment website you would have received a confirmation number from the IRS when the payment was made - https://www.irs.gov/payments/direct-pay

If you selected Direct Debit from your bank account to pay the Federal taxes owed, that information was sent with your e-filed federal tax return.  FYI ... THE DEBIT COULD TAKE SEVERAL DAYS  (OR MONTHS LIKE LAST YEAR) TO HAPPEN ... so just write the amount out of your account because some day it will be.  

 

Look at the Federal Information Worksheet in Part V.  The bank name, routing number, account number and the date you selected to pay the taxes owed will be entered.  If you did not select Direct Debit from your bank account then nothing will be in Part V.  Look on your Federal Filing Instruction page for how you selected to pay the Federal taxes owed.

                                                                                                                                      

To access your current or prior year online tax returns sign onto the TurboTax website with the userID you used to create the account - https://myturbotax.intuit.com/

                                          

When you sign onto your online account and land on the Tax Home web page, scroll down and click on Add a state. 

                          

This will take you back to the 2020 online tax return.

 

Click on Tax Tools on the left side of the online program screen.  Then click on Print Center.  Then click on Print, save or preview this year's return.  Choose the option Include government and TurboTax worksheets

 

For the State taxes owed the same type of information will be on the State Information Worksheet in Part V of the worksheet and on the State Filing Instructions page.

However most states, if not all, do not allow state taxes owed to be paid by Direct Debit when using tax preparation software.  They require the payment by Direct Debit only when using the State tax authorities website.

 

AND WHILE YOU ARE THERE .... SAVE THE PDF OF THE RETURN WITH AND WITHOUT THE WORKSHEETS FOR FURTHER REFERENCE.  Also save a .taxfile on the home page as well.
