YES! @grey4 You said it perfectly. Some of us filed and got our original refund. Then we got an email from Turbo Tax saying "Great NEWS you don't have to do anything to receive your refund for the unemployment credit" then a month after that we received an email that said (basically not word for word) "Great News- you may qualify for more credits now that your unemployment refund changes your income level... you will need to amend your return in order to qualify for these credits". I am not sure what Critter is trying to accomplish with the argument- we clearly were misled by Turbo Tax with these messages and now our funds are on hold due to the confusion their emails caused.
At the end of the day- all of us received the message and all of us made the same choice based on the way the email was worded. We amended our returns and now we are stuck waiting until the IRS gets to our amended taxes to issue not only our unemployment refund but also our child tax credit- which after the pandemic and unemployment benefits cut short (in some states) - we desperately need. There are too many people who are in the same boat to keep defending the verbage in the email Turbo Tax sent out.
