Yes,  you must include it just like any income you received, even if tax was withheld.  Your state might not have the 1099G's ready yet.

 

 

UNEMPLOYMENT COMPENSATION

Unemployment compensation is taxable on your federal return.

You will have to enter a 1099G that is issued by your state.

Some states will mail out the 1099G.  Or you might need to go to your state’s unemployment website and use the password, etc. that you have been using to certify for weekly benefits to get your 1099G from the state’s site.

Enter your 1099G in Federal>Wages & Income>Unemployment

Go through the screens very carefully, making sure to enter any federal/state tax you had withheld from the unemployment.

Your state will provide the Form 1099-G for unemployment by the end of January 2021.

 

There is no rush to file.  The IRS will not be accepting or rejecting any 2020 tax returns until February 12, 2021.
