How do I confirm that I elected direct payment from my checking account for both Federal and State amounts due? I cannot find info when I go back to check my return on Turbo Tax.

    Yes. Check to see what was included in the return by downloading the PDF. 

     

    Then, navigate to the first page, Electronic Filing Instructions for your 2020 Federal Tax Return next to Balance Due/Refund.

     

    For more instructions, see: How do I review the method I chose to pay my federal income tax with, after filing with TurboTax Online?

     

    To see your account status with the IRS, go to: IRS: View Your Tax Account.

    In a normal season, the IRS will debit your account on the date you specified or soon after.  We have had several reports of the IRS not debiting accounts on the scheduled date. Just be patient -- the IRS will take your money! 

     
    If you want to check the debit date you specified, look on the filing instructions for your return.  It will tell you the debit date the IRS or State will deduct the payment.  If you did not print them out you can view them using the following steps:
