@SharonP811 If the tax law change makes you eligible for a credit you were not getting at all---like EIC---then you may need to amend. If you were already getting EIC then the IRS will also adjust your refund for that. For now----do nothing----wait to see what the IRS does because they are issuing refunds for the unemployment tax change. You have plenty of time to amend later if you really need to.
If you are eligible for the extra refund for federal tax that was withheld from your unemployment the IRS will be sending you an additional refund sometime during the next several months. TurboTax cannot track or predict when it will be sent. The IRS has not provided a way for you to track it, so all you can do is wait for the refund to arrive.
Please read this very recent news from the IRS:

You *might* need to amend your state return for unemployment that was taxed by your state.
