The 2019 AGI you enter on the e-filed 2020 tax return is your electronic signature.

By entering your 2019 AGI to verify yourself.  If you need a printed copy for someone then you sign it in ink.

Was it Accepted?  Then they verified you.  You had to enter last years AGI for verification.

how can I make sure that I did? They have accepted the return, but Im a little worried. I've never filed like this before.

If this is your first time e-filing, it will feel strange to not have to sign the return. With e-file, it is an electronic signature that is backed with knowledge of your last years return. If your return was accepted, you are considered to have signed and filed.
