Do you have a TurboTax Online account?

I collected unemployment due to downsizing because of COVID19. I do not have records of a 1099G form. Do I need to add unemployment to my 2020 taxes?

I have checked the "Virginia Tax" website, and it says "No 1099G/INT information available"

Yes you have to enter a 1099G if you received unemployment.

You are among millions who have now been affected by a mid-tax season change in the tax law.  Patience will be necessary.

TurboTax will update the software for the unemployment but there is no timeline yet.

  If you have not e-filed yet—-wait.   And if you already e-filed and want to amend for this—WAIT.

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.
