The system will not allow me to enter the MD state tax refund received since I have also entered Unemployment benefits from MD. How do I record both types of income

[Critter]

Although they both come on a 1099-G form they are entered in different places in the program ... see answer below

Tip: If you transferred last year's return over, we'll automatically transfer this info over (assuming the tax file includes your state or locality return).

1. With your return open in TurboTax, search for 1099-G or 1099-g and then choose the "Jump to" link in the search results.
   • Important! Make sure to include the dash in your search, or you'll end up on the unemployment/paid family leave screen.
2. On the Did you have any of these types of income? screen, answer Yes.
3. On the next screen, select the first checkbox and click Continue.
4. Answer Yes to Did you get a state or local refund last year?
5. Follow the onscreen instructions to enter your state/locality, refund amount, and tax year.
