The IRS will automatically adjust returns with unemployment.
If you asked the IRS to debit your account, they will.

- if you believe your refund will cover the liability, then don't send the payment.
If your tax return contains unemployment and a credit, the IRS will adjust both. See IRS to recalculate taxes on unemployment benefits; refunds to start in May If your return has unemployment but you now qualify for an additional credit, then you should amend your return.
Here are some credits for which you may now qualify:
