I had to refile my taxes because I got a form a week after I had filed. I just want to make sure if there were any changes in that filing would turbotax find that, I still owe anything to the IRS and notify me, if not then could you please please please add this feature in.

TurboTax has no way to know if paid your 2014 tax or if you still owe.  The IRS does not share that information with TurboTax.  If you do owe money to the IRS, the IRS will offset your refund and take as much of it or all of it to satisfy your tax owed.  You do not have to enter anything on your tax return.  The IRS knows.
