Any Federal balance due amount that you paid in 2024 for the 2023 tax return is not entered as part of your 2024 return. Unlike state taxes, the Federal tax that you paid is not a deduction.
You only enter any Federal estimated payments that were made during the year so that you get credit for those when determining your overall refund or balance due.
