After you file
No one can see your tax return, nor does TurboTax receive any information about your refund after you file the return, so all we can offer are guesses. Did you pay some estimated quarterly payments and forget to enter them when you prepared your tax return? Have you checked to see what it says in your online account with the IRS? Have you contacted the IRS to ask why they increased your refund?
