Paying is not the last step. After paying, did you continue ahead to the end screen in the File section and click the big orange "Transmit Returns Now" button?
If so, the screen should have said it was submitted, and then you should have gotten an email that the return was submitted and is "pending." But occasionally one might not get the email. And 24-48 hours after that first one (or sooner) one should get a second email saying if the return was accepted or rejected. I myself for unknown reasons have failed to get the emails a couple of times over the years. You can check by another method below:
Check your spam/junk email folders to see if the emails ended up there, or at other email addresses you may have. Also, log back into Online TurboTax. What is shown at the Tax Home? Does it say your return is accepted, rejected, printed, started, incomplete, or what?

When you log into your account you should also see the status and if it was Accepted or Rejected, Started, Printed, Ready to Mail, etc. What does it say?
