Where did the IRS say that you can choose not to exclude the income? The only way not to take the exclusion in TurboTax is to report your unemployment as ''Other Reportable Income'' instead of unemployment. However, the IRS may adjust your return later. And the processing of your return may be delayed as they have the copy of the 1099-G and if you report the income on a different line item, that may cause some confusion. But if you enter your unemployment income as Other Reportable Income, the exclusion will not be applied. @bradenleg100
