@bunsmac70 TurboTax does not file your tax return for you. The user files it by either going all the way through the FILE section and clicking a big orange button that says "Transmit my returns now" or by printing, signing ad mailing the return in an envelope. TurboTax does not do that----only the user can do that. If you neglected to go all the way through and e-file, or did not pay any attention to whether the e-filed return was accepted or rejected, that was user error. Sorry. It would be that way whether you used the free edition or a paid version.
Did you e-file? Did you click a big orange button that said “Transmit my returns now?”
When you e-file your federal return you will receive two emails from TurboTax. The first one will say that your return was submitted. The second email will tell you if your federal return was accepted or rejected. If you e-filed a state return, there will be a third email to tell you if the state accepted or rejected your state return.
First, check your e-file status to see if your return was accepted:

If the IRS accepted it, what does it say here?
https://www.irs.gov/refunds
Or does your account say “Ready to Mail?”
Note: If it says “Ready to Mail” or “Printed” that means YOU have to mail it yourself. TurboTax does not mail your tax return for you.
