Unemployment compensation in box 1 is taxable and should be reported on your tax return.

To enter your Unemployment compensation : 

  1. Open or continue your tax return
  2. Search for 1099-G and select the Jump to link at the top of the search results
  3. On the Did you or Spouse receive unemployment or paid family leave benefits? screen, answer Yes
  4. Follow the onscreen instructions to enter your 1099-G information
