I log in my refund amount in the left corner has increased by $800 compared to what I recieved originally. Unemployment tax break? If so, when will turbo tax update?

I filed taxes in Feb 2021 before the unemployment tax break was passed. When I log in I see my original refund amount, but in the upper left hand corner my refund has increased by $800 . When will turbo tax update? Will I receive any money and if so will it come on my turbo card?

Just keep waiting.  The IRS is sending them out in batches over the summer.
