West Virginia has not exempted 2020 unemployment from state tax - yet.
On Friday, March 19, West VA Gov. Justice announced that he has submitted a bill to the Legislature to exempt the first $10,200 of unemployment benefits received last year by West Virginians from the state income tax for the 2020 tax filing year.
As soon as the IRS and states issues instructions on how to report newly-exempt 2020 unemployment payments, TurboTax will make the necessary updates to its programs.
For customers who have already filed: How do I get the new unemployment benefits if I’ve already filed my taxes?
