Question

Should my refund from 2023 be higher?

I was going through the year end recap for 2024 and noticed that the refund for 2023 seems to be too low. For 'Tax Liability' the amount listed was $102,553 and for 'Total Taxes Paid' the amount listed was $107,119, but the refund was only calculated to $2,443. By my math it should have been $4,566. Did TurboTax make a mistake? How would I go about remedying it?

    Let's confirm some of the numbers on your form 1040 tax return for 2023.

     

    • Line 24 Total Tax 
    • Line 33 Total payments
    • Line 34 Overpayment  This is line 33 minus line 24
    • Line 35a is the Refund you requested
      •  It should be the same as line 34 unless you wanted to do something else with the refund.
