You do not necessary have to mail it as long as it does not have any errors and is not rejected. 

I would check the "status" of your efiled return here:

If it does not show up, that means you would need to change that return to E-file from Mail by following the directions below:

Instructions
  1. With your return open in TurboTax, click the File tab, then Continue.
  2. On the E-file Your Federal Return for FREE screen, select the first option, E-file, then Continue.
  3. Select the returns you want to e-file on the following screen and keep following the onscreen instructions.
  4. Eventually you'll come to the screen with the Transmit Returns Now button. This will electronically send your return to the government.
  5. Finally, watch your email to track the status of your e-filed return.
