"....has a  green heck?"      Do you mean a green check?   Not sure where you are seeing a check mark.  

 

DID YOU E-FILE?

 

Did you e-file?   Did you go through all three steps of the FILE section and click a big orange button that said “Transmit my returns now?”

 

 

When you e-file your return you will get two emails from TurboTax.  The first one will say your return has been transmitted; the second one will tell you the IRS has accepted  or rejected your federal e-file.  If you filed a state return, there will be a third email (usually a day or two later) that tells you if the state e-file was accepted or rejected.

 

Check your e-file status:

 What does it say in your account?  Does it show that the return was accepted?   Or does it say something else---like "rejected," "printed," or "ready to mail?”

 

 

TurboTax never knows how, when or even if you paid your tax due.   Your proof that you paid tax due will be your own bank or credit card records.   And you can check on your own IRS online account to see what it says there.
