After you file
Just paying the fees does not file the return. Did you continue on and go all the way through the File tab, through the 3 steps and hit the big orange Transmit Returns Now button?
For the Online version check your efile status here

When you efile you get back 2 emails. The first email only confirms the transmission. The second email says if the IRS (or state) Accepted or Rejected your efile. Accepted only means they accepted your return FOR Processing. Not that your return is right.
How to Efile
You need to verify your ID with the 5 digit Pin from last year or last year's AGI
