How can I use an overpayment on Virginia State taxes from 2019 and 2020. Where can I enter this overpayment that I did not take?
I am seeing one place to enter on 1040 Federal form. It has nothing to do with Federal. It is a refund that I left.

What do you mean you "did not take" and "refund that I left"? If you mean, you applied your state refund to the following year, please see How do I get credit for a 2020 refund applied to 2021's taxes?. A 2019 state refund can't be applied to your 2021 state tax payment.
On your 2019 Virginia return, you would have had to enter that your 2019 refund should be applied to your 2020 Virginia income tax return.
On your 2020 Virginia return, you would have had to enter that your 2020 refund should be applied to your 2021 Virginia income tax return.
