The mail I just got says my 1099-G is for tax year 2017. Does that mean this has nothing to do with my 2019 filing?

[CarolynM · Accepted solution]

You are likely receiving a 1099-G for a refund of your 2017 state taxes, funds you received in 2018.

This income does need to be reported on your 2018 tax return, which you are completing now, in 2019.

I know it gets confusing.

Perfectly answers my question. Thank you so much!
