After you file
Did you efile? Was it Accepted?
Did you go all the way through the File tab, through the 3 steps and hit the big orange Transmit Returns Now button?
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. And check your spam folder for them.
For the Desktop program you have to check the filing status inside the program. But I wouldn't trust that. It is known to be wrong sometimes. Go by the Accepted or Rejected email.
Open your return and go up to menu item
File > Electronic Filing > Check Electronic Filing Status
