IRS wants a confirmation number that taxes were filed. Turbo tax seemingly cannot confirm this number.

All Turbo Tax provided was that return had been accepted. IRS says there should have been a confirmation number included.

TurboTax does not give a "confirmation number".   If you e-filed, you should find a certificate of electronic filing in the pdf of your tax return.

 

So---is the IRS saying you did not 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?”
