Get your taxes done using TurboTax

Are you referring to the field called "Occupation"?

 

You can make any answer you want here, there is no "right" answer. "Unemployed" is perfectly OK - it does not imply that you are getting unemployment from the state.

 

The values for Occupation are just used for statistical analysis by the IRS.
