My form 1099-G does not apply to any of the categories listed. It's not for business, farm, or disaster, etc. How can it be defined?

What did you get the 1099-G for?

 

Unemployment or Paid Family Leave? To enter your Unemployment or Paid Family Leave 1099-G Income you will click the following:

  • Federal
  • Income and Expenses
  • Show More next to Unemployment
  • Start Next to 1099-G Unemployment
  • Walk through the steps to enter your 1099-G from Unemployment

A state refund?  If you did not itemize your federal taxes last year, this is not taxable income and does not need to be reported.

 

If you did you would enter it by selecting:

  • Federal
  • Income and Expenses
  • Show More next to Other Common Income
  • Start next to State and Local Tax Refunds form 1099-G

Yes, thank you for the reply. The 1099-G was for a 2020 state tax refund. I did not include it on my 2021 tax filing.
