Declaring 1099-G DOL Unemployment Compensation not received,,,

[Cynthiad66]

If you received a 1099-G from your state, but didn’t actually receive unemployment benefits last year, you should contact your state to request a revised form (corrected 1099-G).

Unfortunately, there has been an increase in identity theft using people’s information to receive unemployment benefits. Your state is sending you this form because they think you’re the one that received this income.

Thanks Cynthia.

I have contacted the State DOL again today, so hopefully I'll hear back. My core question for Turbo Tax (IF I DON'T HEAR BACK FROM DOL B4 MAY 15) should I file taxes with the amount that I know is correct--and disregard the 1099-G?

[Cynthiad66]

Yes.  File accurately and keep the corrected document when you receive it for your records.

Appreciate it.

Thanks
