Sounds like you itemized on Schedule A.
2020 standard deductions
$12,400 Single
$18,650 Head of Household
$24,800 Married Jointly
Add an additional $1,300 for over age 65 or blind
This amount increases to $1,650 if the taxpayer is also unmarried.
Did you enter a lot of deductions? You get to use either the Standard Deduction or Itemized Deductions whichever is more. If you have Itemized Deductions you should have a schedule A. Are you looking at the right line? 1040 line 12.
No. I did not itemize on Schedule A. I expected $24,800 but it is double that.
Better call in. Never seen that problem.

How do you know that? What form and line are you looking at?
What is on your 1040 form line 12?
I found a form called "St Ded with QDL". Shows my "Net Qualified Disaster Loss" being added to the "Standard Deduction Claimed with Qualified Disaster Loss". Can this be correct?
Do you have a form 4684 and did you have a qualified disaster loss?
Then it is probably correct and you would also have a Schedule A so it IS an itemized deduction.
(You might want to review the Schedule A and add any other deductions that you might have, medial, mortgage interest, property tax, others that would add more to your refund.)
