Should I have recieved a summary of my state tax refund? each year i used to get a statement for my state tax refund from the prior year but did not get one this year

Yes, you usually receive a form 1099-G from the state.

 

Your state/locality may have sent you a 1099-G form (if they haven’t gone paperless). You should receive your 1099-G by mid-February if your state/locality still sends out paper forms. If you did get a 1099-G, make sure it's for a state/local tax refund, not unemployment compensation.

 

Here are some other places you might find the amount of last year’s state/local refund:

 

• Last year's state tax return
• Your bank statement showing your entire state/locality refund
• Your state tax agency (for state refunds) or municipality (for local refunds)
