Did you report a 1099-G for Unemployment Comp?  The first $10,200 is nontaxable.

This sounds like you may have gotten the $10,200 exemption for unemployment.  

It is first recorded on Schedule 1 as Unemployment Compensation on line 7.  Then on line 8 there is a UCE (Unemployment Compensation Exclusion) of -$10,200. This is then carried over and posted to your tax return (1040) on line 8.
