Why is there a red dot next to my federal refund number?

At the top of the page where I am working on my taxes, there is a red dot next to the green number that is my federal refund amount.

That is the amount that TurboTax is calculating as the refund before factoring in the stimulus payment and Advance Child Tax Credit Reconciliation.

The red dot is there to display that Turbo Tax has a breakdown of what your refund is so far. 

 

If you would like the red dot to go away, you can hover over the amount of the refund, and click on the black box to view the breakdown.
