@ Sydnee-matthews45 

asked:  "How do I get the rest of my 1,070 dollars from my taxes?"

 

Is $1,070 the Federal refund figure shown on your Form 1040, Line 35a?

NOTE:  If you are also getting a state refund, it comes separately in a second direct deposit.

 

Otherwise, if you have received a direct deposit from the IRS/US Treasury, and if your Federal refund was less than you expected, compare the refund figure shown on your Form 1040, Line 35a with what you see in the results for the IRS "Where's My Refund" tool.

https://www.irs.gov/wheres-my-refund

 

Does that IRS website tool say the IRS sent the amount shown on your Form 1040, Line 35a, or did the IRS lower the amount of your refund?   If the IRS lowered your refund amount, they should send a letter explaining why in about 3 weeks or so.

According to the tag below your question, you appear to be using Free Edition, so I assume you had no product fees to have taken out of the Federal refund.
