Get your taxes done using TurboTax

If your husband received payments from unemployment, then he will receive a Form 1099-G that will be used to report those payments. 

Similar to a W-2, this form must be issued and available to you by January 31st. 

When you do receive it, use these steps to enter it into your tax return:

    • On the top row of the TurboTax online screen, click on Search (or for CD/downloaded TurboTax locate the search box in the upper right corner)

    • This opens a box where you can type in “unemployment compensation” (be sure to enter exactly as shown here, including the dash) and click the magnifying glass (or for CD/downloaded TurboTax, click Find)

    • The search results will give you an option to “Jump to unemployment compensation

    • Click on the blue “Jump to unemployment compensation” link
