1099-G form is inaccurate.

My 1099-G form I have on the unemployment website I use shows the total I was able to claim, not that amount I have received thus far. Turbo Tax is asking for the amount received. Is it okay to do the math and enter in an accurate amount?

1099-G form is inaccurate.

The problem you're going to run into is the IRS is going to rely on 1099-G they receive.

I assume your 1099-G is for more money than you think you received. 

If you use your amount you'll get a letter in several months, to a year or more saying they have different information and that you owe more money, plus interest.

I recommend that you call the state agency and try to sort this out.
