I know that I can make an IRA contribution by April 15 and have it apply to my 2020 taxes. Can I make a withdrawal by April 15 and have it apply to 2020 taxes? Just trying to nail down some specifics ahead of filing. Thanks

No. Withdrawals are calendar year.

It would appear that there is a process to withdraw a 2020 contribution before filing by April 15 2021.

(there is also a process for after April 15, within 6 months, by doing an amended return citing a "section 301.9100-2"

See https://www.irs.gov/publications/p59...link1000230703

(this link is for 2019 version as the 2020 version has not been released yet ! )

Suggest you call your IRA custodian, and see if they understand the process.
