I didn’t get my full refund, I only received half of it. I couldn’t find a way to reach out to turbo tax, IRS not answering. Who can I reach out to that can help me?

You will be getting a letter from the IRS in 2-4 weeks. TT is not notified. Also see:

If you have a discrepancy between your return and your refund, it may be caused by a refund offset or a correction made on your return.

A refund offset is when the government applies part or all of a taxpayer's refund towards the taxpayer's past-due income tax, child or spousal support, student loans, or state unemployment compensation debts. If this happens, you should get a letter from the government explaining why you didn't get the entire refund as stated by @SweetieJean. You can also get this information by looking up your refund at the IRS Where's My Refund page.

The IRS may have also made a correction to your tax return, resulting in a lower than anticipated refund. Again, you'll get an official explanatory letter when this happens. Common corrections for the 2021 tax year involve Line 28 (Child Tax Credit) and/or Line 30 (Recovery Rebate Credit). If these credits were taken in error, the IRS will automatically adjust your return to disqualify you from the credit amount.
