@prkammann Another thought: You did not mention which tax year your IRS letter is referring to. If they are saying you have something incorrect on a 2021 tax return, it is possible that you entered the amount of the advance tax credit payments incorrectly. For tax year 2021, if you received advance child tax credit payments between July 2021 and December 2021, you had to enter the amounts you received so that when your child tax credit payment for line 28 was calculated, you received only the "other half" of the 2021 refundable child tax credit. When you prepared your tax return, and entered information for the CTC, did you correctly enter the amount from letter 6419 that the IRS sent to you (and perhaps to your spouse if you filed a joint return)? If you made a mistake with that, then the IRS adjusted your refund.
