There can be a number of reasons why your refund was less than the amount you expected. TurboTax does not receive feedback from the IRS regarding money that was offset from your refund. If you owed back taxes, child support, student loan debt, etc. you will receive a letter of explanation from the IRS in several weeks. The WMR site will contain a message regarding your offset. It is also possible that the IRS caught a mistake you made and reduced your refund.

(Be aware also that your Federal refund and state refund do NOT come together)
Did you choose to have TT fees deducted from your Federal refund? (Remember that if you did that, you also agreed to an extra refund processing fee of $39.99)
How can I see my TurboTax fees? https://ttlc.intuit.com/questions/2565973
Hi good afternoon !
I did not receive my full return.
Wondering why
@Jeannettablunt Once your returns are accepted by the IRS, TurboTax no longer receives any updates on them. Other missing dollar amounts may be caused by a refund offset. This is when the government applies part or all of a taxpayer's refund towards the taxpayer's past-due income tax, child or spousal support, student loans, or state unemployment compensation debts.

The IRS can also adjust your tax return for data entry errors, income that you forgot to claim, etc.
It happen to me to. Little over 200 short no record of where it went
@23DuranFam You will get a notice in the mail from the IRS if they reduced your refund. It always comes after the refund is issued, so it may be on the way to you.
I am miss over 5,000.$ I do not owe any dues to the state. My refund could not be that far off - im sure!.
What can I do?
