TurboTax does NOT file your tax for you - you must file it yourself. The money you pay to TurboTax is to pay for the use of the software to prepare your return. Paying does NOT automatically file the return. It is your responsibility to be sure that the return was transmitted by verifying that you received emails from TurboTax that says it was transmitted and another email that says that it was accepted by the IRS. Until both emails are received the return is not filed.
