After you file
is it for federal or state? Federal and state refunds come separately from different places at different times. And they don't come in parts. Maybe the IRS reduced your refund. How much is missing? Do you have an amount on line 30 or 28?
If the IRS adjusted your refund they will mail you a letter in a couple weeks.
The 2 most common reasons this year is you entered the wrong amount on line 30 for the Recovery Rebate Credit (3rd Stimulus payment) or line 28 for the Child Tax Credit. Those lines are just if you didn't already get the full amount or qualify for more. The IRS knows what they already sent you.
A lot of people answered the questions wrong and tried to claim the credits again. Double check your bank statements and Check your IRS account (both accounts if married)
