Follow the directions below to enter your 1099-G refund amount into TurboTax:

  1. With your return open in TurboTax, search for 1099–G (don't forget the dash!) and then select the Jump to link at the top of your search results.
  2. This will take you to Did you have any of these types of income? Answer Yes.
  3. On the following screen, check the first box State or local income tax refunds and continue.
  4. Answer Yes to Did you get a state or local tax refund?

You should end up on the Tell us about your refund screen. Below are some tips for filling out the entry fields on this screen.

Note: If your 1099-G shows an amount in Box 1go here for alternate instructions, as the steps below won't work.
