So my refund was supposed to be $868 but was reduced to $687 out of nowhere. TurboTax said there wasn’t an issue with my state return but the state of Massachusetts said there was. Is there a way to get my additional $181 back?

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?  Traffic fines, etc.?

No I don’t have anything that should make my refund lower

No one at TurboTax knows.  The state does not tell TT anything at all.   Contact your state.
