After you file

@meligkc I just re-read your post---and this line in your post is confusing.  Could you please explain what you mean by this:

 

"I thought I would apply for my taxes separately, but the tax refund was applied for the same state at once."

 

Federal and state returns are prepared and filed separately.   Did you prepare a state return?  Did you need to prepare a state return to seek a refund of tax withheld for a state?
