Do you have to amend your state taxes for you to get your refund back from unemployment

Do you have to amend state taxes or do the RS automatically do that for you for your unemployment every five

The IRS is only for federal tax returns, not state.  The IRS will calculate the unemployment compensation exclusion tax refund on a federal tax return for those that are eligible.

 

You will have to amend your state tax return for the state exclusion.
