We are still waiting as the treatment is still being determined at this point by the IRS. According to the newly passed legislation, the first $10,200 on unemployment earned in 2020 would be considered nontaxable if your household income is less than $150,000.

it looks like turbo tax was updated on the federal side for the unemployment tax waiver but i notice i still have tax due for the state. i am filing in nys, are the states not allowing for the same waiver?
As of today--New York has not followed the trend to exempt unemployment---so it is still taxable in your state. Quite a few states have enacted new changes to follow the federal example, but some have not. Alas--NY has not.
do you think this could change or is this set in stone?
