It's not clear what you did. It seems that you filed your tax return by mail, since you are talking about USPS tracking. But you cannot pay the tax you owe by direct debit if you file by mail. Direct debit is only available with e-filing. CatinaT1 thought you e-filed, but that does not seem to be the case. How exactly did you arrange for "direct withdrawal" from your bank? Did you use IRS Direct Pay or EFTPS? Or did you initially tell TurboTax you wanted to e-file, and select direct debit, but then print your tax return and file by mail instead of e-filing? If that's what you did, your direct debit information did not get sent to the IRS. The information is not on the printed return, as you can see by looking at your copy of the Form 1040 that you mailed. TurboTax would not have offered direct debit as a payment method, or allowed you to enter direct debit information, if you had selected "File by mail."  

You simply need to enter Quebec as your province of residence on December 31st, and when you enter your T4 slips, if the province is Ontario, you will need to choose the province of Ontario. If you do not have a Relevé 1 slip from Quebec, you simply skip it.     You can transfer to the Province of Quebec up to 45% of the income tax shown on information slips issued to you by payers outside Quebec. In the provincial section under Other Quebec Credits, check the box that says "Tax transfer for residents of Québec who earned income in another province and from which federal tax was deducted".      Thank you for choosing TurboTax

You don't have anything to amend if it is reported correctly with QCD on Line 4b.   There would be no changes to the return, so don't amend.  Keep the letter with your tax records in the unlikely event you receive another notice.
