What is the tax form 1099G used for?
A 1099G is a form that shows payments made by a government entity to a taxpayer. It is frequently sent when a taxpayer receives a refund of state taxes.
Do I need to file a tax return?
It depends on how much you earned in the tax year and your filing status. These determine your tax bracket. For instance, in 2008, if you're married but filing separately, you have to file if you earned at least $3,400. However, if you're single, you only have to file if you earned at least $8,750. You can calculate your estimated tax by using a tax rate schedule. I have a 1099G from unemployment - 353.00 - I also have a 1099 from Social Security Benefit - 7, 152.00 - Totalling $7,505.00. No taxes were taken out of my unemployment check. I was wondering if I had to file because of the unemployment I received. I file single.
What if you filed taxes with the 1099g but didn't put it on the line the 1099g goes that you filed it just like a normal W2?
Form 1099-G reports various government payments, including unemployment compensation, state tax refunds, alternative trade adjustment assistance (ATAA) payments, taxable grants and Department of Agriculture payments, and market gain on CCC payments. It is most often seen reporting state tax refunds and unemployment compensation. If your 1099-G reported a state tax refund, and you had no tax benefit from your state income tax withholding in the prior year (in other words, you didn't itemize your deductions on Schedule A), you do not have to report it or pay tax on it. If you reported it incorrectly as wages, you have paid more income tax than you owed. If you included unemployment compensation with your wages, your total tax liability will be correct. However, the IRS matches information forms such as W-2s and 1099s to the information on your income tax return. They are not concerned about you reporting more wages than they know about from W-2s. But they will notify you that you have not reported the unemployment compensation, because it does not appear on the correct line of your income tax return. The problem will be easily solved with a letter and copies of your W-2s and 1099s. In future, I recommend you save yourself the scary correspondence with the IRS by reading the forms and instructions very carefully.
