This is incorrect. I HAVE the email. It says "will" not "may"
I got my return back already. I filed back in feb. In May I hot an email from turbotax saying i will need to amend. So i did that. I find out days later I didn't need too. This is 100% a mistake on Turbotax's part and it would be great if they would at least acknowledge it. My family is obviously not the only one hurt by them sending us an email with false info that has our money backed up for months. I don't know how you think you're helping by telling me what you think my email says. Here is what it states exactly
"

Dear TurboTax Customer,
We are following up on our earlier email regarding the increased Unemployment benefits. Great news! In addition to the unemployment benefits, you may now be eligible for additional deductions, credits or benefits on your 2020 TurboTax federal and state returns.
Unemployment Income: Based on the recently passed American Rescue Plan, the first $10,200 of your unemployment income may now be tax-free. Since you filed before this law was in place, you could be owed an additional payment from the IRS.
Additional Deductions and Credits: Now that some of your unemployment income is tax free, your Adjusted Gross Income (AGI) may be lower. This means that you could now be eligible for additional deductions and credits.
In order to claim any additional deductions and credits you are now eligible for, you will need to file an amended federal AND state tax return.
Amending is easy, and our experts are here to help. Simply log in to your account and select "Amend using TurboTax Online," and we'll guide you through it. In the unlikely event that these additional credits or deductions result in a product upgrade with additional fees, just continue with the amend process. You will reach a screen with instructions on how to contact an expert who will remove the fees. Everyone will be able to file their amended returns to gain these benefits at no additional cost.
Thank you again for being a TurboTax customer.
Sincerely,
TurboTax Care Team" In case you missed it "In order to claim any additional deductions and credits you are now eligible for, you will need to file an amended federal AND state tax return" This is an issue. |
