A tax return is the form you send to the IRS. A tax refund is what you receive from the IRS if you had a tax overpayment.
TurboTax does not receive any kind of tax refund, federal or state.
The tax refund is sent to you by the IRS.
If you requested to have your TurboTax account fees paid from the federal tax refund, the IRS will send the refund to the third party processor to have the TurboTax fees and the service charge deducted from the refund. the third party processor would then attempt to direct deposit the remaining refund in the account you specified on your federal tax return.
Did you request to have the TurboTax fees paid from the federal tax refund?
