Have to add unempolyment 1099G to income have not completed 2020 yet

UNEMPLOYMENT COMPENSATION

Unemployment compensation is taxable on your federal return. 

You will have to enter a 1099G that is issued by your state.

Some states will mail out the 1099G.  Or you might need to go to your state’s unemployment website and use the password, etc. that you have been using to certify for weekly benefits to get your 1099G from the state’s site.

Enter your 1099G in Federal>Wages & Income>Unemployment

Go through the screens very carefully, making sure  to enter any federal/state tax you had withheld from the unemployment.

If you have not e-filed yet, then open your return in TurboTax, then do a Search (upper right) for 1099-g and click on the jump-to link (Mac users have to find 1099-G in the Topics List).

 

This will take you to where 1099-Gs for unemployment and state tax refunds are entered.
