Do you have a TurboTax Online account?

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

All of my 2020 income came from PUE - - Covid assistance payments. I had been self-employed and had to stop working. Turbo Tax isn't asking me about this income.

You should have received a Form 1099-G from your state unemployment department showing the PUA. You have to enter the 1099-G in TurboTax. To enter it, type "1099-g" (without the quotes) in the Search box, then click the link that says "Jump to 1099-g."


Many states do not mail out the Form 1099-G. You might have to access it on the state's unemployment web site.
