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.

Does the letter explain what the IRS has changed?  if so, you should first check the IRS number against the number you entered and then compare it to source documents.    often the difference is due to the taxpayer entering an incorrect number or forgetting to enter an item. after reviewing the numbers if you agree with the IRS follow the instructions in the letter. if you disagree follow xmasbaby0 guidance.
