Don't know what that means. But a 400 refund to 800 tax due is a $1,200 difference.
1200 sounds like the second Stimulus payment for married or Single with 1 dependent. Was 1200 on line 30?
A common adjustment is if you claimed the Recovery rebate credit on 1040 line 30 when you already got the Stimulus payment or got the second one after you filed. The IRS knows they already sent it to you. But you tried to claim it again on your tax return.
you e-filed, using your computer.
Per Computer is what you submitted.
"per computer" is the IRS's computer which they say is different from what you filed.
$1200 is defiantly the stimulus payment so did you make an error in entering how much stimulus you received in advance ? Did you get the second payment after you filed ? Did you accidentally put the first and second amount on the same line ?

NOTE: When you open your return back up, do not make any changes in it if it's already been filed. If you later have to amend the return, it has to start off exactly as it was when it was originally filed.
