Get your taxes done using TurboTax

No, you shouldn't file your tax return without including your form 1099-G for unemployment. The IRS and state matches your income tax forms that you report to what they have on file. You'll most likely get a letter stating that you did not report this income which may delay your refund.

 

Note: Most unemployment forms are available online so there's no reason not to include it on your income tax return.

  • Log into your states unemployment account and look for year end forms or form 1099-G.
