Why can't I see my refund status at the top like in previous years?!

This was a great tool to give me an estimate.

MISSING REFUND MONITOR

 

Sorry—-the “running” refund monitor that used to change as you entered data is gone.  You have to get all of your income, etc. entered into the software in order to see the results.

The other place for you to look for your federal refund or federal tax due is on your Form 1040

Federal refund will be on line 35a

Federal tax due (that needs to be paid by April 15) will be on line 37

  

PREVIEW 1040

To get the Refund Meter to work you must fully complete the Federal review. 

 

On the main menu on the left side

  • Under Federal
  • Click the Review tab
  • You must make all of the corrections
  • The Federal and State refund meters will appear.
