Hi,

I filed the Federal Tax using TurboTax. Estimated return amount showed $5,522 and while checking the status it's displaying adjusted Refund amount is $2,722. I keyed all the data from W2 as is and no wrong data entry. Can someone help me on getting this issue resolved.

The $2800 difference sounds like you made a mistake and said you did not get the 3rd EIP payment of $1400 per person last year. If you incorrectly put that back on your return, the IRS checked and took it off. You cannot get that stimulus payment twice.

Check your online account to see if the IRS says you received the $1400 per person already.

Are you saying that you did NOT receive that payment last year? And did you file a joint return? Did your spouse receive the $1400? Or did you get $1400 for claiming a dependent?

@Dharma83 - TurboTax is a income tax preparation platform. When the return is submitter to the IRS, TurboTax is no longer involved in the process. You will have to contact the IRS for details.

Normally, when IRS adjusts your filed return, they will issue you a notice of explanation. In any event, you will have to contact the IRS for any information relating to the adjustment. Because of privacy issues, TurboTax is not notified of any information regarding your tax return.
