    If your state tax withholding (plus any estimated tax payments you may have made) are less than your state taxes due, you will owe the balance.

    If this doesn't answer your question, please provide more details.

    Did you receive unemployment comp in 2020?  Some states tax it, but nothing  may have been withheld.
