Direct Debit after eFile Date

I attempted to eFile a return and do a Direct Debit for the tax payment in TurboTax Desktop.

I received an error saying I was after the closing date for eFile. However, TurboTax Desktop says the direct debit was successful.

I now need to file the return by mail. Should I also send in a check when I file the return, or will the direct debit still take funds from my bank account?

Yes since you can't efile then the direct debit info did not get sent.  Send a check or go online to pay the IRS and state.   You can pay the IRS directly at
