The unemployment compensation is taxable income on a federal tax return.  It will added to your earned income to arrive at your total income on Form 1040 Line 9.

Unemployment is taxable.  You will get a 1099G for it.  Enter the 1099G and your W2 into Turbo Tax.  Did you have any withholding taken out of the unemployment?

 

Enter a 1099G for unemployment under
