Usually I receive a small state refund and owe a small amount or receive small refund on Federal return, For 2025, I'm receiving a heatlhy  refund (per TT)  and owe the state an almost equal amount.  Thus far I can not find an error.

It’s generally advisable to avoid filing an Amended Tax Return unless absolutely necessary, as the process can be complex and time-consuming.

I recommend thoroughly reviewing your tax return to identify any potential discrepancies and making adjustments as needed. As a TurboTax customer, you have access to our Tax Experts, who are more than happy to assist you with this process.

I believe you are referring to 2024 filing.   I recommend you check your results with the TurboTax tax caster.  It is a great tool to drop in the amounts and see if the results agree (Federal only).   Here is the link:   Tax Calculator 

You can also request an expert review through TurboTax before filing:   Expert Review 

It is best to check your return in advance of filing to avoid having to amend in the future.

The most important factors affecting your refund are your income and the amount your employer withheld for taxes throughout the year.   You can use the tax caster to adjust your withholdings with a revised W-4 throughout the year.   Here is a link for the revised tax calculator for the One Big Beautiful Bill:  Tax Reform Calculator which continues to have updates.
