I figured it out, absolute nightmare though.
You don't want to claim it as 1099-g, because it wasn't. You should amend for the 1099-misc, and as long as you follow all the other prompts in all the faqs you'll be good to go BUT THE MOST IMPORTANT PART- only click that it is income for THIS YEAR. Not in 2024 or next year, if you do that the system is not smart and makes it self employment, schedule c, which is a much higher tax rate.
If you submit your taxes with the wrong forms, you're at risk for being flagged for an audit. Hope this helps!
