why am I not getting State income tax back? minor making 3400 for year.

We cannot see your tax return, and we do not know what state you are in, so we cannot determine what the threshold is for paying tax in your state.

The most common reason for owing state tax is that you did not have enough state tax withheld from your paychecks during the year.   Double check all of the amounts you entered from tax documents such as your W-2's---look carefully at boxes 16 and 17.  Look for misplaced decimals and extra zeros.  Print a copy of 2023 and 2024 state returns and compare them side by side, line by line to spot the difference(s).
