Box 6 should be Taxable Grants on that Form 1099-G. You can use the steps below for where to enter this. 

1. If this is a 1099-G for state or local income tax refund, use these steps:

 

  • Log into your account and click orange Take me to my return button
  • Type 1099-G (be sure to include the dash) in the Search box in top right 
  • Click on jump to 1099-G and that takes you to the Did you have any of these types of income? screen and click Yes
  • On the next screen put a check mark in the box next to Other Government Payments reported on Form 1099-G and click Continue
  • On the next two screens select Yes, since Box 6 should be Taxable Grants on that form
  • Follow the prompts through next few screens until you reach the screen titled Tell Us About Your Taxable Grant and you will enter Box 6 information there along with other info from that form.
