I used TurboTax to do mine and my husband's taxes for 2022. We just received a letter from the IRS in December of 2024 stating that we owed money to them because they looked over our taxes again and determined that stuff was missing and they want their money back and added a lot of fines all on one day. The same day we received the letter. We used TurboTax that is supposed to review all of our items and approve our filing before sending it off. We are unsure what to do at this point.
I RECEIVED A LETTER FROM THE IRS/STATE
TurboTax does not receive any information from the IRS or your state after your return was filed, so no one at TurboTax knows about a letter you received from the IRS or the state.

ACCURACY GUARANTEE
TurboTax provides do-it-yourself tax software. TurboTax guarantees the calculations done by its software. The information entered into that software is data entered by you, the user. TurboTax cannot and does not check that information against any outside sources, so TT cannot know if you entered your information completely or correctly. It is up to you to enter all of your information correctly and completely, and to check your tax return before you file it. If you forget to enter some income, or enter it incorrectly, enter it in the wrong place, etc. then you may end up owing additional tax to the IRS and/or state. TurboTax does not pay the additional tax you owe. If TurboTax’s calculations were incorrect, and you owe penalties and/or interest, then TT will pay the penalties and interest. The tax due is always owed by you, and must be paid by you.
