I received unemployment income and federal taxes were withheld. When I enter the income there is no place to enter the taxes withheld. Where does this go?

It can be easy to miss the spot to enter the federal taxes you paid on your unemployment compensation.  As you are entering the 1099G, you get to a screen that says "What's the Total Amount You Received on Your 1099G?" Right below the state you have to select, there is a box you can check to say you had federal or state tax withheld from your unemployment.
