Get your taxes done using TurboTax

Where exactly in the program did you make the entry that resulted in the message that the amount you entered exceeded the state and local refund reported? 

 

Sometimes the state refund you received includes amounts that were not refunds of state taxes paid; for example, such amounts as certain refundable credits, real property tax credit, earned income credit, child and dependent care credit, and school tax credit.

 

See this help article for information about when to report your state or local refund on your return.
