The Form 1099-G for unemployment or a state tax refund is sent to you by your state usually before the end of January.

If you received unemployment compensation in 2020 then that must be entered on the 2020 tax return.  The form 1099-G from your state for tax year 2020 will have the compensation you received and any taxes withheld from the compensation.

No, you can't wait until next year (2022l to file your 2020 1099-G form for unemployment.

 

2020 income must be filed on your 2020 tax return.  The IRS will also receive a copy of your 1099-G, and they will  either reject your return when you try to e-file or they will send you a letter and ask why you didn't include it.

 

You should receive your 1099-G after 1/31/21.  The IRS will not even begin processing returns until 2/12.

I live in the state of Florida and have been waiting since the end of January for my 1099g.  I was on furlough last year for 5-6 weeks and have been back to work since last June.  Why has this state not sent out our 1099g's?

I have tried for days to contact SOMEONE at the state and I get nothing!

The state of KY did not send me a 1099G can I simply add the unemployment payments I received from banking statements?

You need the Form 1099-G from the state as the IRS has already received this form and it has to match what you enter on your federal tax return.

 

Can I get a copy of my 1099 online?
Yes, log into your online UI account starting at kcc.ky.gov. From the welcome screen you can
select the 1099 tab. Follow the instructions to download.

The IRS sent me a letter stating they did not have my 1099g on file & that i needed to send them a picture of the real 1 i recived, not just a print out of 1 from filing.

I uploaded a picture of it onto Turbo Tax when i 1st filed. I have sense moved & lost my 1099g. I need a copy of the picture that I uploaded to Turbo Tax. Is there a way i can get that?

What you did was uploaded the info from that form and not the actual form.   Get another copy from the issuer.

The 1099-G is issued by the state not the feds ... contact your state for another copy.

But the state sent you the 1099G.  You have to ask the state for another copy.  Turbo Tax does not have or keep a copy.  Sorry.

If you uploaded a PDF of the return into the MY DOCS folder then you can retrieve it from there  however if you just imported the "pic" then you did not upload the form but only the info on the form so the program doesn't have it.

The IRS is not your state.   The IRS is for Federal tax.  The IRS wants a copy of the 1099G.

Whoever issued the unemployment form is who you have to talk to ... there is nothing the TT program can do for you in this situation.

Why does the state want to see your 1099G since they are the one who sent it to you?  What you entered from it must not agree with the actual one they sent you.   Was there state withholding on it?  You need to talk to the state about it.
