No, you do not need to report it. But you may want to report it.
You made a tax payment in 2016 that exceeded the amount you originally reported, if you filed Schedule A. (If you don't itemize deductions this year, you can ignore the rest.) Because you paid additional tax in 2016, you now have an additional $212 tax payment you can take as a deduction.
