Working Military Spouse Filing

I am a working military spouse and my husband is active duty Navy. Both my husband and I live in Washington and we both claim residency in Florida (our home state). I work full time in Washington, but during lockdown, I claimed unemployment for Florida because I had not worked enough hours in WA. I know there's no state income tax here as well, but is there anything special I need to do for our taxes this year? We will be filing jointly. Last year (2019), I worked in Florida full time.

Thank you in advance.

Since there is no income tax in either state, just enter the 1099-G for your federal return since unemployment is taxable at the federal level (it isn't always on the state level, but this doesn't matter in your case).

I thank both of your for your service (military families sacrifice as much the actual sailors)
