No, it's not necessary to open a new thread. The deduction for unemployment compensation you quote is for the tax year 2020. There is no reduction in the amount of unemployment income you will report and include for 2021. Enter your Form 1099-G and include the full amount of Box 1, of $17,000. It is fully taxable for 2021.
