Unemployment credit

[krissy19747]

I filed my taxes May 20th before I put in unemployment I was getting back almost 600 after the unemployment it went down to 163 why is this? I'm being told by people from my unemployment group I should be getting back at least a thousand for a single filer due to this unemployment credit. Does someome know if this is supposed to increase my refund and if so how do i get it since TurboTax program screwed me over snd didn't do it right. I purposely waited to do the taxes because I heard about the credit.

The exclusion is reported on Schedule 1 Line 8 as a negative number.  The unemployment compensation received is on Line 7 of Schedule 1.  The result flows to Form 1040 Line 8.

No one can tell you what you will get back based off a general assumption.  They don't know how or  if the reduction in income affected other things like refundable credits.  Review the return before and after the unemployment entry to see exactly what did change.
