If you're asking about the TABOR refund, it's not automatic -- you need to answer some specific questions in the Colorado portion of your TurboTax Online interview. At the end of the interview, you'll come to a screen called You're getting the Colorado sales tax refund! The screen will also tell you the amount of the credit you'll be receiving.
The credit amount will be displayed on line 34 of your Form DR 0104.
If you don't appear to be receiving the credit, you might want to double-check the information you've input.
