Get your taxes done using TurboTax

Hi dnajjar20,

 

So your tax refund was a little more than you thought you'd get?

 

If the difference was nominal, say $1 - $40, it could be interest. When the IRS is late paying you back your refund, they pay you interest. You can confirm it is interest by checking your account at irs.gov, like evelynm and Cindy4 have mentioned.
