Unemployment Benefits

[anitracllns]

I see the changes that have been made by the IRS on my tax. I have even had a turbo tax representative look at it with me to ensure I was looking at everything correctly. Even though the my unemployment has been adjusted I have not received a return.

Does Turbo Tax have any information on this.

The IRS began to send out the additional refund checks for tax withheld from unemployment in May.   If you are eligible for the extra refund for federal tax that was withheld from your unemployment the IRS will be sending you an additional refund sometime during the next several months.  TurboTax cannot track or predict when it will be sent.  The IRS has not provided a way for you to track it, so all you can do is wait for the refund to arrive.

No ... TT gets nothing from the IRS however the IRS did post that it will take all summer to process these returns with the corrections on them so all you can do is wait patiently for them to dig out of the millions of returns that piled up on one poor unsuspecting department.
