Did you e-file your 2018 return? Or did you print and mail the return?
What I suspect is that you e-filed your return and never returned to the Desktop program to check the status of your e-filed return. Doing that would officially show your return as "Accepted" and would clear that refund meter. Did your 2018 information transfer into your 2019 return correctly?
I'll have to ask how to clear that refund meter for 2019. Let me inquire of my SuperUser peers to see what will do that. I'll post back when I have an answer, or someone else may respond to you.
