Retirement tax questions

There is only one form 1099-G with several uses, but it's still the same form.

 

Presenting the topic with variation and at different entry points in the process is confusing and quite ambiguous.

 

Same thing with 1099-MISC; it's presented twice, but only the second one works as it's also a subform of Schedule-C, which the software will not allow you to do out of order - it's just loops "missing form, check one of these boxes", and then just continues to tell you it can't proceed without the missing form.
