After you file

The $1619 is the refund if you did not receive the $2800 last year. If you did receive it and you claimed it again on your 2021 taxes, the IRS won't allow it. That is why you received the notice that you owe taxes instead of a refund. After you remove the $2800 Recovery Rebate Credit, it should show a balance due of $1181 instead of a refund. The TurboTax calculation is correct.

 

There is no need to file an amended return if you agree with IRS changes, assuming you did receive the $2800 in 2021.
