No one else can see your tax return so we do not know what you entered. Have you entered ALL of your 2021 income? ALL of your other information including any dependents you are claiming (if any)? Have you visited the section for credits and deductions? Gone through the Federal Review section?

Print out your 2020 return and lay it next to 2021 and see what is different.

Your tax refund is the difference between your total tax payments/credits and your total tax liabilities. Look at your Form 1040 for the taxes on your Taxable Income and the total of your payments/credits.
