Get your taxes done using TurboTax

One common thing a number of folks are experiencing if they claimed a Recovery Rebate Credit on their return for a stimulus payment (1 and 2) they had actually already received , or if they received a stimulus payment (1 and 2) after filing.  Or if the IRS adjusted the amount of that credit for some other reason.

You can tell if you claimed a Recovery Rebate Credit by looking at Line 30 of your Form 1040.

 

Also check the IRS "Where's My Refund" tool.  Sometimes there is a message there when they make a change, such as an offset.

Also, if you are expecting a state refund, it comes separately.  So don't go by any total refund amount that is a sum of Federal and state refunds added together.   TurboTax provides a summary figure that can be confusing.  For the Federal refund amount you submitted, go by what is on your Form 1040, Line 35a.
