After you file

I suspect the change has to do with the child/children

 

Your 1774 + 2426 = 4200

.....and that is likely to have something to do with the child tax credit/advanced credit   ?  3 x 1400 = 4200.

 

(Edited:  But I'm probably confusing the Advanced child tax credit with the "Additional" Child tax credit...that "Additional" one is $1400 per eligible kid.  I get them all mixed up too.   What is the Additional Child Tax Credit? (intuit.com))

 

(edited out)

 

(or could it be you are separated/divorced ..... and there is a conflict as to which ex-spouse is claiming the child tax credits for 2021?)

 

You may need to carefully check the birthdate(s) of your child/children if you are certain their names SSNs are correct......when entering birthdates, you need to enter the entire 4 digits for the year of birth...not just the last two.

But no, I have no idea how to correct that issue.....maybe the IRS processing has some bug they'll fix later?

Certainly, you can call TTX but they probably won't know how to fix it either:
