Repay EDD overpayment

[hunagtax2019]

In 2021 received Edd overpayment of $3774 and repaid in 2022. Not received any forms from Edd. How to get the credit back?

[MinhT1 · Accepted solution]

If you repaid unemployment benefits to EDD, this is a claim of right repayment. You can only report it in the year you actually repaid the claim.

If your repayment is less than $3,000, you'll claim it as a Miscellaneous itemized deduction in Schedule A.

If the repayment is more than $3,000, please read this TurboTax Help topic on how to make the claim.

for less than $3000, what if i use standard deduction?

You will not be able to claim a credit, or deduction in your case, for amounts below $3,000.
