Hello,

 

I received a letter from the IRS who withheld $1590.46. The Deposit was to be: $891.54.  ONLY $491.54 went into my Chase account! Also, I received my AZ a=state refund and it to is short by: $200.00!!

 

What is going on?? I know there was a $300 fee for your service but I am still Short!!

 

Please look into this for me.

 

Thanks,

 

Gail

Sorry---TurboTax gets no information from the IRS or your state after you file your tax return.  Neither the IRS or your state will give any information to TurboTax.  If your refund was reduced by the IRS and/or the state, you will receive letters from them explaining why they reduced your refunds.   Did you owe back taxes or child support?  Or maybe they caught a mistake you made with income or withheld tax that you entered.   Wait for your letters.

Did you choose to have TT fees deducted from your Federal refund?  (Remember that if you did that, you also agreed to an extra refund processing fee of $39.99 or $44.99 in CA)

How can I see my TurboTax  fees?
