Did you e-file your tax return and was it accepted?  

You complete your tax return by finishing all 3 Steps in the File section.  In Step 3, to e-file your tax return, you must click on the large Orange button labeled "Transmit my returns now".  

After completing the File section and e-filing your tax return you will receive two emails from TurboTax.  The first email when your tax return was transmitted and the second email when the tax return has either been accepted or rejected.

Use this TurboTax website to check the status of an e-filed return and if it was either accepted or rejected - <a rel="nofollow" target="_blank" href="https://turbotax.intuit.com/tax-tools/efile-status-lookup/">https://turbotax.intuit.com/tax-tools/ef...>
If accepted by the IRS use the federal tax refund website to check the refund status - <a rel="nofollow" target="_blank" href="https://www.irs.gov/refunds">https://www.irs.gov/refunds</a>
If accepted by the state use this TurboTax support FAQ to check the state tax refund status - <a rel="nofollow" target="_blank" href="https://ttlc.intuit.com/questions/1899433-how-do-i-track-my-state-refund">https://ttlc.intuit.com/qu...>

how do I get to transmit my returns now button, or should I say how do I get back to it, it has been a couple weeks since I first did it, and I got so frustrated because it said it could not be send so I tried to print it and just send it and I could not do that.   so I left it alone, but I just got on it today and It says congratulations your taxes are filed....what!!!  so how do I go back to make sure .
