Why is my refund amount not changing even though I'm due a refund on my unemployment.

[DoninGA · Accepted solution]

If you are referring to the refund on a federal tax return shown on the TurboTax Tax Home web page that amount will continue to be shown from the original tax return that was filed.  The UC exclusion is on the federal tax return that can be viewed, printed or saved using Print Center.

To access your current or prior year online tax returns sign onto the TurboTax website with the User ID you used to create the account - https://myturbotax.intuit.com/

When you sign onto your online account and land on the Tax Home web page, scroll down and click on Add a state. 

This will take you back to the 2020 online tax return.

Click on Tax Tools on the left side of the online program screen.  Then click on Print Center.  Then click on Print, save or preview this year's return.  Choose the option Include government and TurboTax worksheets

Go to this IRS website for information on the unemployment compensation exclusion - https://www.irs.gov/newsroom/irs-begins-correcting-tax-returns-for-unemployment-compensation-income-...
