It is possible that you had your TurboTax fees deducted from your refund. In that case, your refund will be less than what is listed on your tax return by the amount of the fees.

 

To verify what your federal refund is, you can look at lines 34 and 35a on your Form 1040. Line 34 shows what your overpayment of tax is and line 35a will show the portion of that to be refunded to you.

 

To view your form 1040 and schedule 1 to 3:

 

  1. Choose Tax Tools from your left menu bar in TurboTax Online
  2. Choose Tools
  3. Choose View Tax Summary
  4. See the Preview my 1040 option in the left menu bar and click on it
  5. Choose the Back option in the left menu bar when you are done 

For your state tax refund, you can look at your tax summary as follows:
