Oregon Surplus Credit (Kicker)

The Oregon Surplus Credit is not being calculated on my Oregon individual clients because the prior year tax is not populating in screen 53 Other Credits.  So I have to file a number of amended returns for my Oregon clients to get them their Kicker refunds.  Is anyone else experiencing this glitch?  In the past, we didn't have to manually input the prior year tax in order for the Kicker to calculate correctly.

Have the clients received their refunds yet?  Did the state make the correction?  I wouldn't file the amended returns until I was sure they were needed.  The state has all the information to calculate the credit, and they might be checking it to make sure it's not enough, as well as too much.

Great point, I will check with the clients to see if the state corrected the refunds and post the answer here.

In Arizona we can check online if a refund has been issued ... but I don't think it indicates whether the amount has changed.
