Are you referring to an amount paid to the federal government to satisfy a 2015 federal tax audit? If so, you can't enter this anywhere on a tax return for a subsequent year. Federal taxes, penalties and interest paid that relate to a prior year tax return aren't deductible.

I was audited for 2016 and 2015 is there any way to deduct this amount from the 2017 taxes since the taxes were paid in 2017?
