TurboTax never knows about reductions to your refund by the IRS or state. The state will send you a letter to explain why your state refund was reduced. And...no, TurboTax does not and cannot find out anything from the state for you. The state does not share any information with TurboTax after you file your tax return.
MY STATE REFUND WAS LESS THAN I EXPECTED
The state will send you a letter explaining the change. TurboTax does not get any feedback from your state after your return is accepted, so no one at TT knows why your state refund was less. Did you owe back taxes, child support, or student loans? Traffic fines, etc.?
