So, I filled out my information on TurboTax as soon as I received my W2 from work, that would have been late January probably.  I was excited about it because it was the first year that I didn't have any income from side jobs.  My Refund was terrible, If I remember right it was only around 30.00 for Federal.  I hadn't submitted it yet, now this morning I'm entering in my piddly interest income from the bank, and I notice that my Federal Return is over 500.00???  Did something change somewhere?  Been using TurboTax for years, and never seen this.  Did I just start too soon?

    It's possible there were forms that still needed to be updated if you started in late January. It's impossible to guess.

    It was me...  I had two W2 from my employer this past year because I had temporarily taken on some other duties.  I had both of them in there early this year, then this morning there was only the main one.  So sorry.

    Wonder how one W2 got deleted?   Be sure they are both in your return before you file.
