A State Tax Refund is taxable if you itemized deductions on that prior year's federal return and took a deduction for state income taxes instead of the sales tax. You got a deduction benefit for it so now you have to include it as income. If you took the Standard Deduction it is not taxable and you don't need to report it. Check your 1040 line 12 to see which deduction you took.
No, you do not add your federal refund. Follow the directions and add only state or local refunds if that is what it is asking for.

If you just used standard deduction for 2023, they are not taxable and you do not have to enter them.
