Do you have a TurboTax Online account?

We'll help you get started or pick up where you left off.

So I was supposed to get almost $500 from CA in tax refund, last year, but got $0 off that. Any ideas what could have happened?!

You have to ask the state.   TurboTax gets no information from the IRS or your state after you file your tax return.   If the state changed your refund, they should have sent you a letter to explain.

 

STATE RETURN

 

Make sure your state return was accepted:  https://turbotax.intuit.com/tax-tools/efile-status-lookup/

 

To track your state refund:

MY STATE REFUND WAS LESS THAN I EXPECTED

The state will send you a letter explaining the change.  TurboTax does not get any feedback from your state after your return is accepted, so no one at TT knows why your state refund was less.   Did you owe back taxes, child support, or student loans?  Traffic fines, etc.?
