 This is a bloody mess:
 

s = "123456789" # arrives as str
f"{f'{int(s):,}': >20}"

'         123,456,789'
 

You don't need to format twice; you can combine them:
 >>> s = "123456789"
 >>> f'{int(s): >20,}'
'         123,456,789'
or if you rely on default behaviour:
 >>> f'{int(s):20,}'
'         123,456,789'
