Question

I'm trying to fill in a 1099-G for my CA state tax refund but the form only accommodates Unemployment. There's only a box 1 & 4 option and this income is listed in box 2

You are entering your 1099-G in the wrong place. Your 1099-G with an amount in box 2 is for a state or local income tax refund, but you are in the TurboTax topic for entering unemployment benefits. There is a separate topic for state and local tax refunds. To enter your 1099-G, in the Search box type "state and local tax refund" without the quotes. Then click the link that says "Jump to state and local tax refund."
