I also have filed 2020 Tax report and it was accepted March 17, 2021. I'm expecting that refund in April 2021.
How do I find out why I got this check? I thought 2019 business was done. For years I have been pleased with TTax and hoping you can help on this. I saw a similar post but some time ago.
Thanks, in advance, for shedding any light on this situation.
No one on this board has access to your financial information, and no one at Turbotax has any financial information after you transmit your tax return. The IRS should send a letter of explanation, it comes from a different part of the government than the check and may take a couple weeks longer. Or, you can try going online with the IRS and reviewing your account transcript and tax return transcript, to see what adjustments were made.

It certainly sounds like you received an additional $2500 refund from your 2019 return, plus interest since it was paid to you late. Why that refund was issued may be recorded in your tax transcripts.
