I E-filed my taxes through Turbo Tax in early February. Now I have a few issues:
At that time, we were getting a federal refund of just under $1900 and owed the state of Ohio around $400. We’ve already received the refund and I set the state to charge my bank for an e-check payment on April 15th.
Today, I wanted to verify the amount we owe the state.
When I opened Turbo Tax to look at the return, I made the mistake of clicking “yes” when it asked me to update the program. Turbo Tax made updates to both the overall program and the Ohio return.
Now, the return in the program shows that we are owed a Federal refund of over $3100 and only owe Ohio $47.
First, is likely that the tax rules changed that much since February or is the program glitched?
Second, what do I do about this and how would I do it through the Turbo Tax program?
I'm assuming it's just a matter of an amended return to the Feds to ask for an additional refund, but do I have to overpay the state and then file an amended return or can I fix it beforehand?
