I just received a refund from the IRS. How can I find out why?

Ask the IRS.   TurboTax gets no information from the IRS after you file your tax return, so no one at TT knows why the IRS sent you an unexpected refund.   They should be sending you a letter soon to explain.

 

Call the IRS: 1-800-829-1040 hours 7 AM - 7 PM local time Monday-Friday
