The difference is 2800.  2,800 is the 3rd Stimulus payment.  It was 1400 for each person.  Did you already get the Stimulus payment they sent out last year starting March 2021? The IRS has records that show you were sent the 3rd stimulus payment so they removed the 2,800 Recovery Rebate Credit.

 

 Do you have an amount on 1040 line 30?  You might have tried to claim it again.   Line 30 is only if you didn't get the full amount or qualify for more. 

 

Did you get IRS letter 6475 saying what they sent you?  If you are married you should each get letter 6475 for half.

 

Double check your bank statements and check your IRS account to see what they sent you.  Check both IRS accounts if married.

If the IRS thinks they sent it to you but you didn't get it request a trace for a missing third Stimulus payment

@Mad as hell - note that the amount on Line 30 is a function of how much you told Turbo Tax you received for the 3rd stimulus.  If you understated what you received, then that inflated what is on Line 30 and hence inflated the refund.  

 

Go back to the Federal Review section of Turbo Tax and review the questions that were asked and what your response was.....

 

If you did not input the correct number when prompted, then Turbo Tax is going to output the incorrect number onto Line 30.  That is normally the case with every post on these boards related to the 3rd stimulus.
