If you got in the mail IRS Notice 1444 showing the EIP1 of $1,200, that is why the IRS took that off your refund.
You can't collect it twice.
If you indicated on the 2020 tax return that you did not receive the first stimulus payment of $1,200 it was included in the 2020 federal tax refund.
If the IRS has records indicating they sent you the first stimulus payments this is why you are now seeing $10 for your tax refund. The IRS would be sending a notice in the mail explaining why the refund has changed.
After receiving the IRS notice and it is because of the Recovery Rebate Credit being removed you can request a trace of the payments if they were never received.
