Please clarify your question.

 

  • Please do your best to describe what happened.

What lines are wrong?  If it's for a refund on 1040 line 35a or a tax due on 37,  then check to see if you have a penalty on line 38.  That is subtracted from a refund or added to the tax due.  

 

And most places the amounts are rounded so they can add up different than the amounts you typed in.
