Thanks for your feedback. There were a few other postings where I also recognized I was talking apples and oranges with others. However, you had some good information, which helped me evaluate this situation trying to understand the interaction of TT and the IRS incompetence processing the 2020 paper filings.
Fortunately, I have an email that my tax return was accepted by IRS (although not recognized by TT), and I just saw that my tax payment of $3K+ was cashed by the IRS. I will check in with the IRS periodically on their paperwork, recognizing, the IRS still hasn't processed my 2020 filing. So be it. I would like think my blog helps TT and others work through this disfunction.
