You aren't having much luck with your state folks and most are inundated with questions re UC and can't respond fast enough. I agree that if you omit it, you will probably get a notice from the IRS. I suggest you input the 1099 G if your AGI is less than $150,000. Since your 1099 G amount is less than 10,200 and there is a $10,200 exclusion Schedule 1 on your return will show the unemployment and on the line below a negative entry to basically wipe out the unemployment and net it to "0" and have no effect on your taxable income or tax. If your state doesn't exclude UC from tax this won't work since you might have state tax on the UC received. To be sure that there i no effect on your taxes I wold advise completing the return without the UC and looking at the amount of tax due or refund from the IRS and your state. Write them down. Then input the 1099G look at Schedule 1 to see if the UC is offset by a negative entry on line 8. Also look at your amount of tax due or refund from the IRS and your state. If they are the same then you haven't incurred any tax on the inclusion of the UC. If your tax due is higher or refund is lower it had an effect on you and you should wait for an amended 1099G that shows "0" income. Lots of luck on that.
