Retirement tax questions

When I look at Line 72 of Schedule 5, there's no entry.  I think that may be correct, since this is not a an excess social security or RRTA.

Line 24 of Form 8959 has a positive number, which I assume means that I have overpaid and will receive a credit.  I still can't figure out where this credit should go, or why it isn't affecting my federal refund amount.

The other reason that suggests that the amount is not passing through is if I manually adjust my W-2 to have even greater (erroneous) Medicare withholding, there is no change to my estimated Federal Refund.
