@ianshinville It is impossible to pay the state from a federal refund, so yes, your federal refund is much less than you expected, which suggests the possibility that the IRS reduced your federal refund for some reason. If that is what happened, they will send you a letter of explanation to tell you what they changed. TurboTax does not get any information from the IRS when they change a refund. Sorry. Did you receive some advance child tax credit payments that you forgot to enter? Or maybe make a mistake with the amount of stimulus you received? Owe back taxes or child support?
