My payment for my state tax withheld does not reflect on my 2023 tax return. Should I file an amended return, if so, how should I start that?

I do not see anywhere on my copy of my tax return the paid amount of my state tax. I also for an expert to o look over this return and still it does not show a state payment.

On a federal tax return, the state taxes withheld is entered on Schedule A as an itemized deduction.  If you used the Standard Deduction on your federal return, the state taxes withheld will not be reported on the return.

if the state withholding is not showing up on that state return, then it's likely you mis-entered the 2 letter state cod on the tax form where you reported it. as to an amended return. that may not be necessary since the state could catch the omission.  Best would be to contact the state's personal income tax bureau and ask what to do.
