Are you referring to receiving unemployment compensation?

[Opus 17 · Accepted solution]

You should expect a W-2 from your employer and a 1099-G from the state that reports your unemployment payments as income.  Some states don't mail the 1099-G, you have to download it from a web site.  Just go through the program like usual and report both types of income, along with all your usual deductions and so forth.
