Paying does not file your tax return - you must then use the big "transmit" button AND then get an e-mail saying that the return was transmitted. THEN wait 24-48 hours for another email that tell you then the return was accepted only then did you file. If you receive an e-mail that rejects the you must fix the problem and refile. If you did not receive any email then you did not file at all.
