I earned Paid Family Leaven for about 10 days in December 2019. I got the check from State of CA EDD and it was dated in January. I was confused if I should include the Paid Family Leave as part of my 2019 income. I called EDD and they said because the check was sent in January, the income will be part of my 2020 income. That didn't seem to make sense and asked for a Supervisor to call me back from EDD. No one has called and they are impossible to reach.
What do you think? I need to file my taxes per a financial aid deadline. Do I report the Paid Family leave in 2019 or assume it is for 2020. I have not recieved a 1099-G from EDD.
