If you are basing the claim of paying $2192 in taxes on the income entered from your Form 1099-DIV by looking at the change in your balance due or refund, your statement is not necessarily true.  

 

It is possible that the addition of the dividend income and capital gains distribution has moved your return into another tax bracket or affected a credit being claimed which in turn would affect your bottom line balance due or refund.  It is better to enter all of your information before paying close attention to the end result.  

 

That being said, you should go back through the Form 1099-DIV entry to be certain that the numbers were entered correctly.
