Question

I just logged back in and saw my refund amount decrease by about 20%, even though no changes have been made from the last time I saved. Any ideas why this would happen?

To be clear, this is not a change from last year's filing - this is a change in the amount from a couple days ago, with no changes to the information.

There may have been a program update. Updates come out on Thursdays. Or you entered something that affected it. You should not watch the Refund monitor until you are done entering everything.

Is there a place to view how a "program update" can make such a drastic impact? Again, nothing was entered between what the refund showed between the two points in time. Everything was already entered, so there was nothing to update.
