refund incorrect you made the mistake, not me
Please give more details. What was wrong? Turbo Tax is a self prepared return. It doesn't know if you left something off or entered something in the wrong spot.
I would check over your return and see if you can see anything wrong especially in the payments section 1040 lines 16 & 17. Make sure you agree with all the amounts listed. Like is the difference the same or close to the refund you got last year? Maybe you put down that you applied last year's refund to this year? Or you put down you made a payment with an extension or paid an estimated payment that you didn't make?
A common error is showing an estimated payment 1040 line 17 you didn't make or payment with an extension (line 70) you didn't send in. Sometimes people start in extension form on purpose or accidentally and an amount gets entered for a tax due to send in with the extension.
Or you claimed Excess Social Security paid on Schedule 5 line 71. That happens when you are married and enter both spouse's W2s under the same name.
VolovGirl is correct. Unless we get more details from you, we have no way to evaluate what may have happened on your return. This is a public forum and we are volunteers who cannot see your tax return nor the screen in the return that you are on. All we know is what you tell us.
