I received my tax refund in my bank account today, but the amount deposited is different from the total tax refund amount on turbo tax. How can I find out why?

Check to see if the “total refund” on TurboTax is the total of federal and state refunds.

Did you have child text credit and EITC?

You will most likely receive a letter from the IRS explaining the adjustment in your tax refund.   

 

Another way would be to go to irs.gov/transcript.  You will be able to create an account and you can get a transcript.  Your account transcript will show the adjustments made to your refund.  

 

I would wait a week or two and see if you get a letter of explanation and if you do not receive one, then get your account transcript.
