Received unexpectedly low NY refund

  • I elected to have my old federal taxes be paid by my New York refund. This is evidenced by the small refund that I actually received by New York state. Then I was asked to pay my federal taxes by credit card so I did not think that TurboTax actually used my refund to pay my federal taxes so I went along and paid by credit card. Then I only received a third of my refund which would be the amount left if part of my refund was given to pay my Federal taxes. What is going on and what am I supposed to do about this gross under payment? And please don't tell me I misunderstood anything.
