No.  If you already e-filed your tax return then filing an extension would be completely pointless.  An extension only gives you more time to get your documents together to file the return.  It does not give you more time to pay any tax due.  Your tax due is still supposed to be paid by the filing deadline of April 15, 2019.

Was your e-file accepted?

If the IRS accepted it, what does it say here?  

https://www.irs.gov/refunds           Or does your account say “Ready to Mail?”
