Even though you may not be subject to income tax because the standard deduction or Schedule A deductions and perhaps QBI deduction exceed your income, resulting in $0 of taxable income on Form 1040 line 10, you are still subject to self-employment taxes based on your net profit from self employment. You might also be subject to other taxes on Schedule 4 that are not income taxes.
Why do I have tax liability if I have $0 taxable income? not self employed no tips no early withdrawal
Other possibilities are from your W-2 showing codes either A or B in box 12 (usually in error). Those are for uncollected taxes. Another possibility is a penalty such as early withdrawal from a retirement plan.
