First place to check is the amounts you entered from boxes 16 and 17 from your W-2's to see if you misplaced decimals or added zeros. The decimal and comma are next to each other on the keyboard so it is easy to hit the wrong key. Go to Federal>Wages & Income and click on the W-2 (s) you entered.

One thing to check is any state withholding in W2 box 17 or from 1099. You might have missed the decimal point or made a typo. And compare each line to last year's return. Something may stand out.
