Get your taxes done using TurboTax

  • Great idea. You gave me a great lead.  I compared the Amended return with the original return, both prepared by TTax. The Amendment does not take into account the $300 I sent the IRS with my first return as directed by TTax. The Amendment is basing the $1200 refund solely on my revised income. I spoke with someone at TTax about this. She confirmed that the program calculated the $1200 refund from my revised income and that it did not account for the $300 I already sent in with my first return.  She also did not have any guidance right now about how to recover that $300.  However, she urged me to wait for the IRS to review my return and make their own revisions and send me back the refund they think I should have. I'm hopeful. It appears I should get $1500 (the $300 plus the $1200 new refund). We'll see. If not, I'm prepared to file the Amended return seeking the $1200 and file for a rebate of the $300 I"ve paid in already. I sympathize with TTax as the feds continue to change the rules of the game.  They must be working around the clock.  I'd say I surely got my money's worth out of them this year.  I'm also sorry I filed early.  Thanks for your help
