Turbo Tax tells me i need to enter a state identification number form 1099-G box 10b but my 1099-g form is grayed out and does not provide me with one what do i do?

[KrisD15]

To clarify

what is the 1099-G reporting?

Unemployment

Family Leave

a Grant

something else?

Also, which state? 

[fenr1r]

Michigan, unemployment.

[TeresaM]

If your Michigan unemployment Form 1099-G matches the address Michigan Dept of Treas,  PO Box 30757   Lansing, MI  48909 then the State ID should be #38-6000134

[fenr1r]

State of Michigan Department of Labor and Economic Opportunity Unemployment Insurance Agency, and i see a similar number but not the same. 

[fenr1r]

oh geez im sorry thats not the full address at all.  ive been banging my head against the desk trying to figure out all of this for like five or more hours at this point.

State of Michigan Department of Labor and Economic Opportunity Unemployment Insurance Agency

9023 Joseph Campau

Hamtramck Mi, 48212

ive tried googling it by address but i cant find it. 

[fenr1r]

would it be my Payer TIN number?

[MarilynG1 · Accepted solution]

Yes!  If the Payor is the State (for unemployment or state refund, for example) the Payer's TIN would be the same number as in Box 10b.  Box 10a would be the State Code (CA for California, for example). 

However, if you didn't have State Tax withheld (no amount in Box 11), you can leave Box 10a and b blank.
