@Anonymous - let me see if I can help

 

Since you state the refund was reduced by $2800, it's related to the Recovery Credit.

 

There was a question in the Federal Review section asking how much you both received for the 3rd stimulus....

 

since you were eligible for $2800 LESS what you already received, I suspect you answered $-0- to this question, instead of $2800.

 

That errant answer caused Line 30 to be $2800, instead of $-0-.  THe IRS knows what they sent you, so they reduced the Line 30 to zero, which in turn reduces the refund by the same $2800.

 

did you and spouse received the $2800 (each received $1400?) last March - May, 2021? (Check your bank statements - do not go on memory).   if yes, that is what happened.
