Get your taxes done using TurboTax

There are several different 1099-G.

Don't enter it as a tax refund

Don't enter it as a Grant

Under Income is a separate section JUST for Unemployment

Please enter the 1099-G

 

(if this means you need to enter it in a different place than you had, please be sure to delete the erroneous entry)

 

Unemployment will be taxable on your Federal return, so it may increase your tax liability. 

 

Please look at your 1040 line 9 to see how much income you entered. 

 

Click Tax Tools on the left side-bar

Click Tools on the drop-down

Click "View Tax Summary on the Tool Center screen
