1099-G tax forms are now available for those who collected state or federal unemployment benefits last year. If you received unemployment in 2021, you’re going to need this form to do your taxes says Illinois Department of Employment Security Acting Director Kristin Richards.
“To access their form online, claimants need to visit www.ides.illinois.gov and follow the links to 1099-G information, including how to access their 2021 form.”
Claimants who have already opted to get the form electronically should have gotten an email with instructions. Everyone else will get a paper from in the mail. Again, that website is ides.illinois.gov.
