After you file

Where are you seeing "ready to mail?"   What status is showing when you log in and look at the Tax Home?  Is that where you are seeing a status of "ready to mail?"

If so, did you plan to file your return by printing and mailing?  And if so, did you actually print, sign, date, and mail it?   TurboTax does not mail it for you.  YOU have to do it if that's what you selected.   If you didn't physically do it, then it hasn't been filed.

 

If it turns out that you haven't yet filed at all, do you want to change it from filing by mail to efiling?   If so, we can tell you how to go back in to the return and change the filing method in order to efile it.
