After you file

The title box is limited, the details box is not.

 

If the IRS changed your refund then the IRS should follow up in about 3 weeks with a letter explaining the reason.  Usually it is because the IRS had income reported to them that was not in your tax return or you entered it in the wrong place - the IRS expects to find certain types of income in the proper place and does not search to see if you reported the income but in the wrong place.

 

Did you get a letter - what did it say?
