Why is the 3rd stimulus check creating a tax liability?

Preparing 2021 tax return:  Married filing jointly, no children and have an AGI of under $100k.  Prior to the question on the 3rd stimulus payment, we had a refund amount of $104.  After answering this question, Yes, (we received the $1400 each), we now have a Federal Tax Due of $2,731.  I thought the stimulus payments were not taxable and were not suppose to impact the tax returns?     Help Please!!
