How can I check if I selected to pay my taxes by direct debit?

[abeatty44]

I e-filed my taxes via turbo tax on 3/15/22.  I think that I selected to pay my taxes owed by direct debit, however no payment has come out of my account yet.

How can I check if I selected the direct debit payment option in Turbo tax?  I would have expected this to be quite easy to find out but it is not obvious.

 I called the IRS to ask if they have a scheduled payment date for me, but they said that scheduled payments via turbo tax do not always appear in their system.  i don't want to end up paying my tax twice if I go ahead and make a manual payment.

How you chose to pay the federal taxes owed and the date of payment if direct debit was selected will be on the Federal Filing Instructions page and on the Federal Information Worksheet in Part V if direct debit was chosen.

If you are using the TurboTax desktop editions, click on Forms.  The Federal Information Worksheet will be displayed (Info Wks).  Or open the form on the left side of the program screen when in Forms mode.

If you are using the TurboTax online editions -

To access your current or prior year online tax returns sign onto the TurboTax website with the User ID 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 2021 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

Thank you.  Exactly what I needed.

I think it should be easier and a more obvious way to find this information.
