Your unemployment checks have been coming from your state's unemployment department even if some of the money was federal money.

 

Unemployment compensation is taxable on your federal return.  Enter your 1099G for unemployment in Federal>Wages and Income>Unemployment

You might need to get your 1099G from the state’s unemployment site.
