Will the irs see l filed with turbo tax without mailing paperwork

There are two ways to get your tax return to the IRS.  One way is to e-file--that means to file it electronically.  The other way is to print it yourself, sign it in ink, and mail it in yourself.

Did you e-file?  Did you click a big orange button that said “Transmit my returns now?”

When you e-file your federal return you will receive two emails from TurboTax.  The first one will say that your return was submitted.  The second email will tell you if your federal return was accepted or rejected.  If you e-filed a state return, there will be a third email to tell you if the state accepted or rejected your state return.
