The letter should explain the discrepancy.

How much more do you owe? A common adjustment is if you claimed the Recovery rebate credit on 1040 line 30 when you already got the first 2 Stimulus payments or got the second one after you filed or reported the wrong amounts or entered them in the wrong box. Do you have an amount on line 30?
