State tax filing

Is the withholding from Colorado?  And you never worked in CO in 2024?   If so, to get that withholding refunded, you will need to file a nonresident return.   The IRS refunds you what you overpaid in federal income tax.   Since this is state withholding, you will need a state return.   It will show separate from your federal return amount.
