the IRS should make all corrections they are aware of.  if they want an amended return they will request it.

If your child's unemployment was taxed then there may be a refund of some of the tax that was withheld.

 

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.
