Thank you John
@TurboTaxJohnW15 !
I definitely will report that I received a joint return 1099-g but the amount i received as an individual, can i put for 0? Cause technically my ex received the whole amount , and he should report the whole amount on his tax return this year. But since he doesn't make money last year, so he won't need to file tax return even with the 1099-g as income(all his tax related stuff in 2018 will then be just that 1099g state tax return to report). It that gonna be a problem? ( i have the proof of letter from state showing the whole amount is being intercepted)
I read on the forum that the the distribution on joint 1099-g is totally depends on the agreement between the divorced couple. Weather 50/50, or based on income, or in our case, the fact who received it.
