Get your taxes done using TurboTax

You may have had taxes withheld from your unemployment, but that is not the same as having taxable income.

 

You may have taxable income if you unemployment benefits were more than $10,200, and that amount plus any other income is greater than your standard deduction ($12,400).  If this is not the case, you won't have any taxable income and will have to print and mail in your return to get back the taxes withheld.

 


As a workaround, you could enter $1 to either other income or interest in order to efile.
