If I had taxes automatically taken out of my unemployment, and claimed it on my taxes which I filed before the new relief, why am I not getting a refund?

The IRS began to send out the additional refund checks for tax withheld from unemployment in May.   If you are eligible for the extra refund for federal tax that was withheld from your unemployment the IRS will be sending you an additional refund sometime during the next several months.  TurboTax cannot track or predict when it will be sent.  The IRS has not provided a way for you to track it, so all you can do is wait for the refund to arrive.

Review your originally filed return ... it is possible you already got all the withholdings back in the original refund so there will be nothing more for you to get.
