I had to mail in my return. My home page now says "Way to go, you filed your 2019 taxes". Does that mean the IRS filed my return?

Or is that just standard messaging from TurboTax?

 

I mailed in my federal returns on March 24th. My TurboTax account home page now says "you filed your 2019 taxes!" in big, bold lettering. Does that mean the IRS has successfully filed my tax return and I'm all set?

 

I ask because I'm not entirely sure how to check my status on the IRS site. I'm not getting a refund, so I can't track my status using the 'Check My Refund' IRS tool. And if that tool does actually work for those not getting a refund, then I'm in trouble because no results can be found using my information. I'm also getting the dreaded Payment Status Not Available using the new Get My Payment IRS portal that opened today.

 

Is there another way I can make sure my return was 100% filed? And if not, and my paper returns are currently in limbo due to COVID-19, should I use the Non-Filers tool on the IRS page to guarantee I receive a stimulus check?
