Get your taxes done using TurboTax

Hello. Regarding a 1099-Misc for 2024 FMLA benefits:

 

I agree, Oregon should report the benefits on 1099-G, but they are reporting on 1099-MISC, for the second year in a row, it seems. What complicates this is...

 

Oregon just sent out a clarification on where to report the Paid Leave Oregon (tax) subtraction - saying to follow 2024 instructions for 1040 Schedule 1, line 7 on where to report the subtraction. That line is for unemployment benefits.

 

If one enters the 1099-Misc as other income, but the decrease in that other income by the fmla taxes paid, it will look weird on the return, in my opinion.

 

Is the consensus to report this as unemployment compensation or as other income? 

 

Thank you.
