Question

If I'm on unpaid medical leave from the company I work for, do I need to change anything about my "Occupation or Job Title"?

I entered "Home Depot" for last years return, do I need to change it to "unemployed" since I receive no pay from them? Or do I keep it the same?

The occupation or job title entered as part of your tax return does not affect the outcome of your return. You should enter a description that most closely matches your occupation or employment situation for the tax year.

If you were unemployed for most of the year 2020, then 'unemployed' would be an appropriate description. If you did work for most of the year, then you could enter another description instead.
