Your 2020 return will not show any federal taxes paid for 2019 even though you made the payment in 2020. That payment will not affect your 2020 tax return. If you believe there was a mistake on your 2019 return that would change your taxes owed, you should amend your
2019 return.

If you are amending your tax year 2019 return, at the end of the amendment interview after you have entered all of your changes, you will be asked what you paid for 2019 already. You will enter that number and if the amendment shows that you did not owe that much, a refund will be indicated.
