File Form 1099-G, Certain Government Payments, if, as a unit of
a federal, state, or local government, you made payments of
unemployment compensation; state or local income tax refunds,
credits, or offsets; Reemployment Trade Adjustment Assistance
(RTAA) payments; taxable grants; or agricultural payments. You
must also file this form if you received payments on a
Commodity Credit Corporation (CCC) loan. The officer or
employee of the government unit having control of the

employee) must file Form 1099-G.

states. For information on reporting IDT and other types of

Box 1. Unemployment Compensation
You must also file Form 1099-G for each person from whom
the backup withholding rules regardless of the amount of the
payment.
Enter payments of $10 or more in unemployment compensation,
including Railroad Retirement Board payments for
unemployment. If you make payments from a contributory
program that has been deemed to be in the nature of
unemployment compensation, such as California's Family
Temporary Disability Insurance payments or governmental paid
family leave program payments, file a separate Form 1099-G for
payments from each contributory program. Enter the total
amount before any income tax was withheld. If you withhold

federal income tax at the request of the recipient, enter it in
box 4; see the instructions below.
Voluntary withholding. Enter any voluntary federal withholding
on unemployment compensation, CCC loans, and certain crop
disaster payments. If you withhold state income tax, see Boxes
10a Through 11. State Information, later. However, you are not
required to report state withholding to the IRS.
Box 2. State or Local Income Tax Refunds,
Credits, or Offsets
Enter refunds, credits, or offsets of state or local income tax of
$10 or more you made to recipients. These include refunds or
carryforward credits of overpayments of tax due to refundable
state tax credits and incentive payments that are paid under an
existing state tax law and administered by the state taxing
agency. Filmmaker incentive credits, home improvement credits
paid in low-income areas, and solar panel installation credits are
some types of state programs which are generally reportable in
box 2, to the extent a refund is paid by the state taxing agency or
amount allowed as carryforward credit to the next tax year.
Do not enter in box 2 payments that are not state income tax
refunds, credits, or offsets. This may include payments made
under state grant, incentive, subsidy, or other individual
assistance programs. Taxable grants are reported in box 6; see
the instructions below. If recipients deducted the tax paid to a
state or local government on their federal income tax returns,
any refunds, credits, or offsets may be taxable to them. You are
not required to furnish a copy of Form 1099-G or a substitute
statement to the recipient if you can determine that the recipient
did not claim itemized deductions on the recipient's federal
income tax return for the tax year giving rise to the refund, credit,
or offset. However, you must file Form 1099-G with the IRS in all
cases.
Voluntary withholding on RTAA payments is not
permitted.
!
CAUTION
Box 5. RTAA Payments
Enter RTAA payments of $600 or more that you paid to eligible
individuals under the Reemployment Trade Adjustment
Assistance program.
Box 6. Taxable Grants
Enter any amount of a taxable grant administered by a federal,
state, or local program to provide subsidized energy financing or
grants for projects designed to conserve or produce energy, but
only with respect to energy property or a dwelling unit located in
the United States. Also, enter any amount of a taxable grant
administered by an Indian tribal government.
Report amounts of other taxable grants of $600 or more.
State and local grants are ordinarily taxable for federal income
purposes. A federal grant is ordinarily taxable unless stated
otherwise in the legislation authorizing the grant. Do not report
scholarship or fellowship grants. See Scholarships in the
Instructions for Forms 1099-MISC and 1099-NEC.
A tax on dividends, a tax on net gains from the sale or
exchange of a capital asset, and a tax on the net taxable income
of an unincorporated business are taxes on gain or profit rather
than on gross receipts. Therefore, they are income taxes, and
any refund, credit, or offset of $10 or more of these taxes is
reportable on Form 1099-G. In the case of the dividends tax and
the capital gains tax, if you determine that the recipient did not
itemize deductions, as explained above, you are not required to
furnish a Form 1099-G or substitute statement to the recipient.
However, in the case of the tax on unincorporated businesses,
you must furnish a Form 1099-G or substitute statement to the
recipient in all cases, as this is a tax that applies exclusively to
income from a trade or business. See Box 8. Trade or Business
Income (Checkbox), later, and Rev. Rul. 86-140, 1986-2 C.B.
195.
If you pay interest of $600 or more on the refund, you must
file Form 1099-INT, Interest Income, and furnish a statement to
the recipient. For interest payments of less than $600, you may
choose to enter the amount with an appropriate designation
such as “Interest Income” in the blank box on Copy B of the
Form 1099-G.
Box 7. Agriculture Payments
Enter USDA agricultural subsidy payments made during the
year, including market facilitation program payments. If you are a
nominee that received subsidy payments for another person, file
Form 1099-G to report the actual owner of the payments and
report the amount of the payments in box 7.
Box 8. Trade or Business Income (Checkbox)
If the amount in box 2 is a refund, credit, or offset attributable to
an income tax that applies exclusively to income from a trade or
business and is not a tax of general application, enter an “X” in
this box.
Box 9. Market Gain
Report market gain associated with the repayment of a CCC
loan whether repaid using cash or CCC certificates.
Boxes 10a Through 11. State Information
These boxes may be used by filers who participate in the
Combined Federal/State Filing Program and/or who are required
to file paper copies of this form with a state tax department. See
Pub. 1220 for more information regarding the Combined
Federal/State Filing Program. They are provided for your
convenience only and need not be completed for the IRS. Use
the state information boxes to report payments for up to two
states. Keep the information for each state separated by the
dash line. In box 10a, enter the abbreviated name of the state. In
box 10b, enter the filer's state identification number. The state
number is the filer's identification number assigned by the
individual state. In box 11, enter the amount of any state income
tax withheld.
Box 3. Box 2 Amount Is for Tax Year
No entry is required in box 3 if the refund, credit, or offset is for
the current tax year. If it is for any other tax year, enter the year
for which the refund, credit, or offset was made. Also, if the
refunds, credits, or offsets are for more than 1 tax year, report
the amount for each year on a separate Form 1099-G. Use the
format “YYYY” to make the entry in this box. For example, enter
“2020,” not “20.”
Box 4. Federal Income Tax Withheld
Backup withholding. Enter backup withholding on payments
required to be reported in box 5, 6, or 7. You must backup
withhold on such payments at a rate of 24% if a recipient does
not furnish its TIN to you or if you are notified by the IRS that the
TIN is incorrect (Notice CP2100 or CP2100A). For more
information on backup withholding, see part N in the current
General Instructions for Certain Information Returns.
If a state tax department requires that you send them a paper
copy of this form, use Copy 1 to provide information to the state
tax department. Give Copy 2 to the recipient for use in filing the
recipient's state income tax return.
