Will we need to refile 2020 to take advantage of the new unemployment tax credits if we have already received our return? is it treated like a regular tax deduction?

based on preliminary IRS info you'll have to file an amended return to take a deduction for any excludable UC compensation.  Your taxes should go down so you should get an additional refund.  you'll have to wait until the IRS publishes the guidelines and then Turbotax must update its apps to conform.
