The refund monitor can sometimes be delayed, so it may have been your healthcare entries that changed it, or it could have been something else. The two things that could cause your refund to go down relating to healthcare are:
- Excess advance premium tax credit repayment on Form 1040, line
46 or Form 1040A, line 29.
- Health care: individual responsibility payment on Form 1040, line 61 or Form 1040A, line 38.
The premium tax credit repayment should have only been if you made more than you told the marketplace you were going to make.
The individual responsibility payment should have only been if you did not have healthcare during multiple months.
If either of these have values, I would recommend looking over the 8962 to make sure your entries look good.
