State tax filing
Yes. Unemployment received by a resident of Hawaii is taxable by Hawaii, even if it was earned in another state. However, Hawaii may be adopting the federal unemployment exclusion of $10,200. See "Adoption of Federal Tax Provisions" in this reference:
https://tax.hawaii.gov/upd_4txpayr/
Note that Hawaii also gives this instruction in that same reference:
"For taxpayers who wish to file on or before April 20, the Department suggests preparing the return as if Hawaii did not conform to the federal provisions that reduce taxes. If Hawaii does conform to any of the federal provisions that reduces the tax amount owed after you’ve already submitted your return, an overpayment may be claimed by filing an amended return."
**Answers are correct to the best of my ability but do not constitute tax or legal advice.
