Is there any amount in box 11? If there is then contact the insurer for a corrected 1099-G. Of not then leave all boxes 10a/b-11 blank.
This year we have seen a number of states issue 1099-G forms that have tax withheld in box 11, but boxes 10a and/or 10b are empty. TurboTax requires that if box 11 has a value, then boxes 10a and 10b must also have entries.
Box 10a is probably the two-letter state code for your state (example: "MI" for Michigan). The filer identification number for box 10b is likely to be the same to the Payer’s TIN on the left side of the form.
I have the same question. The reply above said it is probably the same as the federal identifier. There is a separate number for the substitute 1099 G listed online. So now I am not sure which one to use. Can someone please respond.
If your paper document field for the federal ID # is blank, but there is one in that box when you view the same tax reporting document online, then use it.
An Employer Identification Number (EIN) is also known as a Federal Tax Identification Number, and is used to identify a business entity. Generally, businesses need an EIN.
