Get your taxes done using TurboTax

1) what was the refund you were expecting? in other words when you filed you tax return, what was on Line 34 and 35a? (they might be the same) of Form 1040?

2) did the amount on Line 14f came from the letters you received from the IRS or did you determine yourself from your bank records?  I would have expected you to have recived $1500 * 4 children + $1800....that is $7800 - not $7500..... as you state 1 child was under 6 on 12/31/21 (so the other 4 children were 6 - 17 years old).
