Some common reasons for 2021 is if you tried to claim the Recovery Rebate Credit (for the 3rd Stimulus 1,400 per person) when the IRS already sent it to you. Line 30 is only if you didn't get the full amount or qualify for more. Not the amount you already got.
Or you might have tried to claim too much for line 28 Child Tax Credit.
@musterclan highly likely the issue relates to lines 28 (child tax credit) or Line 30 (recovery rebate credit), although $2700 is a little "odd" -
what is on those two line numbers?
how many people listed on your tax return? (you, spouse, dependents)
if there are children, how many under the age of 6 as of 12/31/21 and how many 6-17 years old as of 12/31/21?
