@bry24 - that is a good start - a $6,000 difference is likely the child tax credit. Please take the time to answer my questions - it'll be a lot quicker than dealing with the IRS
1) what is on Line 28 of form 1040
2) what are the ages of EACH of your children as of 12/31/21.
3) how much did you receive for the Advance child tax credit. Please review your bank account for the months of July -Dec. 2021. Please do not do this from memory.
4) what was your filing status in 2021? married or Head of household?
