The family benefit you received is probably taxable. Benefits you receive under the paid family leave program are taxable and included in your federal and District gross income. You did not mention whether you are a DC resident. The reporting requirements and withholding options are different for non-DC residents versus DC residents.
While you did not receive a 1099-G, you should have received a Form 1099-G from the District reporting the payments you received during the year. If you are a non-DC resident, please contact the appropriate state tax agency for guidance on taxability of benefits in your state.
Because the Paid Family Leave program is administered by the Department of Employment Services (DOES), Office of Paid Family Leave (OPFL), you might want to contact that office to obtain your 1099-G or any other document/information you might need.
