If that showed the efile was accepted, (or if you mailed a paper return), you can use the "Where's My Refund" tool at the IRS website below to monitor the status of your Federal refund.   https://www.irs.gov/wheres-my-refund   If that IRS tool says it's not finding your information, here are some tips:   If you efiled, be sure you have waited at least 24 hours after acceptance before using the IRS WMR tool.   If you mailed a paper return, it won't show up in the tool for at least 4 weeks or longer. Be sure you enter the correct tax year, SSN, and filing status. Be sure you are using only the Federal refund amount.   Do not include any state refund or any total refund or net refund (Fed and State) that TurboTax may have provided on a summary screen.   Look at your actual Federal return to get the Federal refund amount, i.e., your Form 1040, Line 35a. If the IRS WMR tool is still not finding your information, you can also try phoning the IRS refund hotline, again using the figure from Form 1040, Line 35a. I've seen it work for some users when the WMR tool didn't.  800-829-1954 If still no luck after that, we can tell you how to phone the IRS to inquire.

Please clarify your question by providing some additional information so we may better help you. Such as: What version of TurboTax are you using? Do you have a question? Are you entering a Form 1099 that has no EIN? Was the Form 1099  issued in error? What TurboTax screen are you on?

You can switch between the standard deduction and itemized deductions by following the detained instructions in the TurboTax article  How do I change from the standard deduction to itemized (or vice-versa)?  

Paying the fees did not file your tax returns.  Did you go all the way through the FILE section and click a big orange button that said "Transmit my returns now?"    Did you get the emails that told you if your return was accepted or rejected?     Did you e-file?  Did you click a big orange button that said “Transmit my returns now?”     When you e-file your federal return you will receive two emails from TurboTax.  The first one will say that your return was submitted.  The second email will tell you if your federal return was accepted or rejected.  If you e-filed a state return, there will be a third email to tell you if the state accepted or rejected your state return.   First, check your e-file status to see if your return was accepted:  https://turbotax.intuit.com/tax-tools/efile-status-lookup/ If the IRS accepted it, what does it say here?   https://www.irs.gov/refunds            Or does your account say “Ready to Mail?” Or “Rejected?” Or “Printed?”   Note:  If it says “Rejected,” “Ready to Mail” or “Printed” that means YOU have to mail it yourself.  TurboTax does not mail your tax return for you.   If you realize now that your return was not e-filed successfully, then you will need to file it by mail.  E-filing is permanently closed for past year returns.  You will need to print the return, sign and date it in ink, and mail it in.

What is your question? Please clarify what type of 1099 form you have. There are over 20 different kinds. There is no plain Form 1099. All 1099 forms have one or more letters after the 1099. The most common are 1099-INT, 1099-DIV, 1099-B, 1099-NEC, 1099-R, and 1099-G. Unemployment compensation should be reported on a Form 1099-G. If you have a 1099-G, which box is the income in?  

You can review the IRS website Where to file paper tax returns with or without a payment? For mailing addresses. Include your W-2s and any 1099s that have tax withheld. Refer to the IRS Tax Tip HOW TO PREPARE YOUR TAX RETURN FOR MAILING for additional information.   To find out the address to mail your state return you need to check your State Department of Revenue website to get the address . Refer to the TurboTax Help article How do I contact my state's Department of Revenue?  and select your state.
