One big change that hasn’t been addressed is that you had 2 jobs in 2021 and 1 job in 2022.

Every employer has to take out money for Social Security until you hit a certain maximum. When you switch jobs, the new employer deducts money for Social Security as if you’re starting at $0. It’s possible you overpaid on Social Security in 2021 and were refunded the amount you paid over the maximum. Now that you only have one job, you’re not overpaying Social Security.
