I filed my 2017 tax return before the Bipartisan Budget Act was passed and the result was that I owed $3,756.
Then after the law changed, I amended my return to claim the mortgage interest deduction, and TurboTax showed that I would receive a REFUND of $293. It appeared I had gone from being in the red to being in the black as far as my tax obligation.
Now I'm getting billed by the IRS for $3482. They just took what I owed on the initial return and subtracted the $293 "refund". This was not at all the impression I got from the TurboTax software and I'm very disappointed. Now I called TurboTax and have been on hold for a half an hour. What is going on?
