After you file

I don't believe the backlog that you speak of is the issue at all.  I have confirmed they have processed my return and have the transcript.  I am having the same issue and I know others who had to pay and it was done within a day.  I looked at my tax return and noticed 35c is not check for either Checking or Savings.  I clearly remember having it checked, as I have used Turbo Tax for many, many years.  I think this may be causing the payment not to be withdrawn.  It is beyond me that Turbo Tax would allow a return to be filed without an error message or warning.  Now if this is the issue, how do we rectify.  Because trying to talk to a live operator at either Turbo Tax or the IRS is near impossible.
