Like I said it's just the combination of federal and state. It is just the overall total for both. It doesn't mean anything. It is just for your info.

1,093 - 839 = 254. After you get the 839 state refund and pay federal 1,093 you are 254 out of pocket.

Nobody can see your screen or your return. Did you have a balance due on the tax return?

It might be the net combined of federal and state. Look at the actual tax returns.

And Turbo Tax will always say the tax due or refund. That is the result of the returns you filed. It is not updated when you pay or get a refund.

Do not get confused and think the state refund will go to the IRS and pay the federal tax due. You have to pay the $1093 to the IRS and wait for the state refund of $839.
