Why wasn’t there no federal tax withheld on my tax return?

Federal tax payments are entered on a federal tax return when you enter federal taxes withheld from the Form W-2 and/or Form 1099 you received that has the federal taxes withheld.

You have received the 2022 W-2 from your employer already? 

Any federal taxes withheld on a W-2 will be in box 2 of the W-2.

What tax year are you working on?   It would be surprising if you already have your 2022 W-2--employers have until the end of January to issue them.  Are you trying to prepare a 2021 return using the online program?   And.....if you have a W-2 with no federal tax withheld, then ask your employer why they did not withhold federal tax.   Maybe your earnings were low enough that they did not have to withhold any federal tax.   Your W-2 has to be entered just as it appears.  If you think it is incorrect you have to discuss it with the employer.
