Do I need to report on my federal return the 2025 Georgia surplus tax refund I received?

I took the standard deduction in 2024.

Yes, you are correct. You should not enter this on your federal return.

No, even if you received a 1099-G, this amount is not taxable to you since you took the standard deduction in the year it relates to. You should still keep the form with your tax records.
