Missing 1099g for unemployment pymts from the Tennessee Bureau of Labor. I think I should be able to import the info if I simply had the Federal payer ID. Help?

Is there a way to locate the Federal payer ID number?

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.

Most states with a state income tax do tax unemployment benefits

AL, CA, DC, NH, NJ, and PA  do not tax unemployment

you should be able to log into its website and enter the 1099-G info manually if it can't be imported.
