You do not say what the 1099G was for. Was it for unemployment? For 2021, all of your unemployment is taxable on your federal return. The tax law that waived federal tax on unemployment for the first $10,200 was only for 2020. For 2021, it is taxable.

Yes it was for unemployment but they took taxes out of my weekly deposits?

Federal withholding from UE comp is typically only 10%, but your actual tax rate might be higher. Further, any increase in income can also lower or eliminate some deductions/credits.

Some states also tax UE comp.

When you add additional income, your tax liability increases. If the refund dropped then your tax liability increased and you did not have additional taxes withheld to cover the difference.
