The IRS thinks you owe a repayment of the credit.

 

If you got the credit in 2008 and you still live in that home, you need to make a repayment.

 

If you never got the credit you need to file by mail and contact the Taxpayer Advocate service to remove the faulty database record.

 

If you got the credit in 2008 and you moved out some time in the past, your move was supposed to be reported at the time.  When you moved out, you were supposed to report the move and repay the remaining credit in full, unless there was some special circumstance.  If you reported your move out, the database may not have been correctly updated.  If you never reported moving out, you may need to file an amended return, and you may have been overpaying your credit since then.  You would need to post more specific details so we can assist.
