The State Tax Refund Worksheet determines if a prior-year state tax refund (reported on Form 1099-G) is taxable on your federal return. If you took the standard deduction last year, the refund is not taxable; enter $0. If you itemized, enter the amount of state/local taxes deducted (Schedule A, Line 5a/5c) to calculate the taxable portion.
