Be careful when using Turbo Tax, does not calculate correctly

Just a PSA. I started to finish my taxes in Turbo Tax this year, and it just seemed like a low return. I did it myself on the IRS's website, and using identical information to what was entered in Turbo Tax, my refund went from $1,463, to $3,998. I don't have any special income, just W2s. The returns is so simple. I'm not sure how Turbo Tax is calculating taxes owed, but it's just flat out wrong. Thankfully I decided to double check. You should too.
