@BillM223 Thank you for your reply.
Yes, benefit amount is already added as part of Box1 and Box16 is less by the same amount. I received benefits for 8 days.
CA EDD did not pay me anything. My employer paid me directly.
I found same here as well https://www.lincolnfinancial.com/public/employers/insights/absenceadvisor/paidfamilyleave/california
Are PFL benefits taxable?
"Family Leave Insurance benefits are subject to federal income tax and to federal rules on reporting income and paying taxes. PFL benefits are not subject to California state income tax. Benefits paid directly from the State of California are reported on a 1099-G tax form. Benefits paid by Lincoln are reported on a W-2 form. "
