JACKSONVILLE, Fla Some Floridians who collected unemployment payments in 2020 are reporting issues with their 1099-G form provided by the Department of Economic Opportunity.
Claimants are reporting inaccurate amounts listed for “Reemployment Assistance,” “Taxes Withheld” or both.
New mother Ciara Garcia said this is one more obstacle she’ll have to overcome with her struggles with the unemployment system.
“On the tax form it says I received more,” Garcia said. “I didn’t even get that amount. So I would be lying on the tax form if I go with this one.”
