Tax Year Prior to 2020: I got an e-mail saying my refund was accessed what does this mean?

TurboTax is letting you know that someone (you, in this case) signed into your TurboTax account. This message is sent to you on the off-chance that your account was accessed without your knowledge. This most often occurs when you login using a different device or computer than you used the last time you logged in.

If you have already filed before you moved, you will not be able to change your refund method.  For more information on this, please see this Help Article which will advise you how to change your address with the IRS.

If you are referring to the email regarding accessing your tax return, our  system sends automatic emails to notify you of changes made to your account, such as updating your payment method, changing your password, or signing in for the first time on a new device.

 

If you are referring to an email about your tax refund, this usually means your tax return was checked by the IRS and there was either a change in the amount of your refund or the amount of what you owe.
