2020 Tax refund different after updating TurboTax

I opened (and updated) my TurboTax 2020 software so I could view my 2020 AGI for a college scholarship application I was trying to fill out. When I selected "Continue" on my file, the "updated" file displayed a considerable increase in the refund amount from that of the tax documents I had on file (I filed my initial paperwork electronically on 03/03/2020 and received my refund quite some time ago). I received unemployment benefits in 2020 and they are documented on Schedule 1 line 7, but now there is a negative amount on line 8 with "UCE" indicated as the income amount. This nearly negates the unemployment amount, reducing my tax burden (apparently) and increasing my refund (along with checking some obscure box saying I'm not a student). Do I need to file an amended return?
