Get your taxes done using TurboTax

Monika, you are right. I had mistakenly entered the 1099-G under "other 1099-G", because I missed the dedicated section for unemployment. Under Unemployment section, the Easy Steps flow did not give me the option to select "unemployment compensation", it forced me to choose among categories that did not apply to unemployment benefits, such as "taxable grants", "agriculture payments", etc. I think that when user selects a wrong category, that causes miscalculation on state taxes. Fortunately, I was able to enter the numbers directly into box 1 using "Forms". Box 1 is for unemployment benefits. Not sure why TT does not include Box 1 into Easy Steps. It seems to be a bug.
