I got 14000 in federal paid taxes why does my refund say 0? This is my first time doing this I think I messed up

Your tax liability is based on your taxable income.  Look at your tax return and you should see where there is a discrepancy, if any.  If your taxable income was in the $82,000 range then having a tax liability of around $14,000 would not be out of the question, if you are filing as Single.

No.  Itemized or Standard Deduction reduces your Adjusted Gross Income so the result is your taxable income.

As stated - Look at your tax return, Form 1040.  It shows you the Adjusted Gross Income Line 8b, the Standard Deduction Line 9 and the Taxable Income Line 11b.

Your total taxes on your Taxable Income are shown on your Form 1040 Line 16.

Your total tax payments are shown on your Form 1040 Line 19.

If your total tax payments are greater than your total taxes then you will get a refund for the overpayment.  The refund is on the Form 1040 Line 20.

If your total tax payments are less than your total taxes then you will have taxes owed.  The taxes owed is on the Form 1040 Line 23.

You see none of those lines on the Form 1040 using this procedure to view the 1040?
