Here is how to enter the Unemployment Compensation you repaid for 2015 and 2016:
- Sign into your TurboTax account and select Take me to my return
- Select Federal Taxes (top of program)
- Select Wages & Income (sub tab under Federal Taxes)
- Select Unemployment and paid family leave (1099-G) Start or Edit/Add
- While entering the Unemployment Compensation received, you will see "Did you pay back any of your 2016 unemployment benefits?" (click on screenshot below for details) Answer Yes
There is a "Note" below that question that reads "If you repaid benefits that you received in 2015...We'll cover that later."
After you have entered the benefits received and repaid for 2016, the next page will ask about whether you repaid any benefits in 2015 (click on 2nd screenshot below for details). This is where you will enter the amounts repaid for 2015.
