There is an option for 1099Gs, but the "boxes" aren't the same as for the PUA-1099G. It keeps telling me "needs reviewed," but I've input all information given.

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.

The PUA preceding the 1099-G form is used to report different types of unemployment benefits received but it is reported the same way on the return. Your unemployment income is reported on schedule 1 and will carry over to form 1040 line 8

Make sure you have entered the PUA 1099-G form correctly. To report form 1099-G:

Login to your account.
Select Federal from the left menu.
Go to Wages and Income then Income and Expenses.
Scroll down to Unemployment.

If TurboTax is asking for your parents' income, it must be because you are subject to "kiddie tax." The kiddie tax is a tax imposed on individuals under 19 years old whose investment and unearned income is higher than an annually determined threshold.

If you already filed your return and you need to adjust your entries for form 1099-G, you need to amend your return.
