It’s a 1099G, right?  Not a W2.

You can  type  "unemployment compensation"  into the search box at the top of your return and hit find.  It should give you a Jump To link to take you right to it.
 
Or Enter a 1099G for unemployment under
Federal on left
Wages & Income at top
 Unemployment - Click the Start or Update Button
