My suggestion is that you delete the Form 1099-G entry that you have made and start again. It seems things are still not quite in the right place for a state tax refund.
Go to the main Income & Expenses section of your return and scroll down to the Other 1099-G Income section. Edit this section and delete any Form 1099-G that you see there by clicking Delete or the trash can icon.
Then, use the following steps to start again with the Form 1099-G:
- On the top row of the TurboTax online screen, click on Search
- This opens a box where you can type in “state and local tax refund” (be sure to enter exactly as shown here) and click the magnifying glass
- The search results will give you an option to “Jump to state and local tax refund”
- Click on the blue “Jump to state and local tax refund” link
- Be sure to check the box for State or Local income tax refunds
You will know you are on the right track if you see some follow-up question after entering your information that ask about whether you used the standard deduction or itemized deductions on your 2019 tax return.
