The fact that your state refund is more than your federal refund is beside the point. It doesn't mean anything. The federal refund doesn't indicate anything about how much your state refund should be. A more meaningful comparison would be to compare to last year's state tax. How much was your state refund last year? If your state tax refund this year is around the same as last year's state tax refund, and your income and other factors are about the same, then it's probably correct. If this year's state refund is much higher than last year's, and there were no major changes in your income or other factors, compare last year's and this year's state tax returns line by line and see where the significant differences are. That should indicate what is causing the difference, or where to look to see if you made a mistake entering something. There's no way to tell whether your state tax return is correct or not without looking at the return, which we can't do here in AnswerXchange.
