We in community don't have access to you tax return and without looking at your return it would be impossible to know why your state refund is $13. However, there are many reasons why your refund might be lower this year, such as:

  • Your Income increased.
  • You had a second job.
  • You did not have enough taxes withheld during the year. 
  • You changed your Filing Status.
  • Number of dependents claimed this year.

Make sure you entered all you forms and information and check that the amount you entered for state income tax withheld on your W-2 box 17 is correct.

I recommend that you print a copy of last year's return and make a line by line comparison with this year's return.
