It depends.
There could have been a tax form that the IRS and FTB received that were not included with your tax return filing or maybe you had estimated tax payments that were not reflected on the tax returns as filed.
Typically, when a taxing agency makes changes to your tax return, they will also send a letter explaining the difference between your tax returns as filed and any changes they have made.
Please see Tax Season Refund Frequently Asked Questions from the IRS and Help with refunds from the FTB for other possible reasons for the change in your refund.
