Get your taxes done using TurboTax

If the original return was filed when taxes were charged against the first $10,200 of unemployment, and nothing else changed for this amended return, then yes, you will receive a refund due to the change in the tax law.

 

However, the IRS will automatically calculate the adjustment for you. The IRS has requested people to not ament in this case.
