Dear TurboTax Support, Can I report foreign unemployment benefits using Form 1099-G?

The 1099-G entry form will require a state code to be entered.   Who paid you unemployment benefits?   You can enter foreign income without a US tax form in the miscellaneous income section.  Here's how to enter your foreign income:

 

  1. Sign in to TurboTax and open or continue your return.
  2. Search for foreign income.
  3. Select the Jump to link in the search results.
  4. Answer Yes to Did You Make Any Money Outside the United States? and follow the onscreen instructions.

you need to report foreign income if you're a US citizen or resident. You'll need to report all of your income, whether it was earned in the US or abroad.
