What does it mean that God does not see iniquity in His people?

Answered in 1 source

It means God views His people as righteous due to the sacrifice of Christ, not on account of their own works.

When Scripture states that God does not see iniquity in His people, it refers to the cleansing view that God's justice takes toward believers because of Christ’s atonement. As noted in Scripture, all the sins of God’s people are covered by the blood of Jesus, satisfying divine justice. Hence, when God looks at His people, He sees them as perfected in Christ, free from the guilt of sin. This assurance allows believers to approach God with confidence, knowing they are seen through the lens of Christ’s sacrifice and righteousness, rather than their own inherent sinfulness.
