Out of state unemployment compensation

  • In 2024 I received payment of $960 for an unemployment claim I filed in Michigan in 2021 for COVID. I have now lived in Florida since 2021. Do I have to declare this payment on my federal tax return? At the time the federal government said unemployment up to $10,000 would not be taxed. How do I indicate that this payment should not be taxed by the IRS?  Michigan deducted state tax from the payment.  Should it have been taxed? Do I have to file a state return for Michigan?
