I received a 1099-G for a state tax refund but none of the 5 payment type options you provide apply. What do I do?

If it's asking why you got the 1099G for a state refund then you are in the wrong place.  Go back and enter it here…….

To enter a state refund just type  1099-G or 1099-g (with the dash)  in the search box at the top of your return and click on Jump To it.

OR  Enter the 1099G under
 Federal on the left side
Wages & Income at the top
 
Scroll down to  Other Common Income
      You might need click on Show More to expand the section

Then it's the first line for Refunds Received for State/Local Tax Returns - Click Start or Revisit
     You do not want the next line that says Other 1099G Income
 
On the first screen check YES - Received a State Refund.
