Deductions & credits

Income received in 2021 will go on a 2021 tax return.   The law that waived federal tax for the first $10,200 of unemployment was only for unemployment received in 2020.   It will take another act of Congress to change that to unemployment received in 2021---so wait to see if Congress changes the law.
