Do you have a TurboTax Online account?

We'll help you get started or pick up where you left off.

Where is the 1099-G entered? It tells me to go to Refunds Received for State/Local Tax Returns. I am sure they changed the name slightly but that screen doesn't show up.

This is for Ohio. Nothing is more frustrating than trying to find something that the help button says is there but with outdated information. I know this is to make me buy the live help, but that ain't happening.

Form 1099-G is entered in the Federal section of TurboTax, in the Wages and Income section and then Other Common Income, then State and Local Tax Refunds on Form 1099-G. It will flow down to the State tax return for Ohio.

The choices it gives me are

  • Taxable Grant
  • Agricultural Program Payment
  • Market Gain on CCC Loans
  • Reemployment trade adjustment assistance (RTAA) payment
  • Business or farm tax refund

I don't think any of these apply as this was something that carried over from last years taxes.

Try using the following steps to go to the section of your return that reports a state or local tax refund:

 

  • On the top row of the TurboTax online screen, click on Search (or for CD/downloaded TurboTax locate the search box in the upper right corner) 
  • This opens a box where you can type in “state and local tax refund” and click the magnifying glass (or for CD/downloaded TurboTax, click Find)
  • The search results will give you an option to “Jump to state and local tax refund
  • Click on the blue “Jump to state and local tax refund” link
