Yes that is a 1099G for a state refund you got in 2025 for your 2024 tax return.
A State Tax Refund is taxable if you itemized deductions on that prior year's federal return and took a deduction for state income taxes instead of the sale tax. You got a deduction benefit for it so now you have to include it as income. If you took the standard deduction it is not taxable and you don't need to report it.
Enter the 1099G under
Federal on left
Wages & Income
Scroll down to 1099-Misc and Other Common Income
You might need click on Show More to expand the section
Then it's the first line for Refunds Received for State/Local Tax Returns - Click Start
You do not want the next line that says Other 1099G Income
Are you sure it’s in box 1? Box 1 should be for unemployment you got. Did you get unemployment? Or those box numbers aren’t following the IRS 1099G form.
