I didn't have taxes withheld from my unemployment. When i filed my taxes, were they taken then? If so, am i elgible for an unemployment tax refund?

Whether you get an additional refund for the unemployment exclusion does not depend on whether you had tax withheld from your unemployment benefits. When you filed your tax return you paid tax on the unemployment benefits, even if you didn't have tax withheld. You will get an additional refund if you reported unemployment income on your tax return, the tax return that you filed did not already have the unemployment exclusion on Schedule 1 line 8, and your Adjusted Gross Income (AGI), not including unemployment, is less than $150,000.
