[QUOTE="Ahxmed, post: 320747, member: 4"] To what extent am I liable to pay taxes on my unemployment compensation for the year 2023? If you get unemployment benefits in 2023, the money will be subject to income taxes. The IRS will tax your unemployment benefits the same way they would tax any other source of income. Where you live will determine how much, if any, state tax you must pay. [B]How do you account for taxes when receiving unemployment benefits?[/B] The Internal Revenue Service and the majority of states that also tax personal income treat unemployment benefits the same as they would treat income from a job. You must record the amounts as part of your taxable income on your federal tax return, so be sure to keep track of them. Alaska, Florida, Nevada, New Hampshire, South Dakota, Tennessee, Texas, Washington, and Wyoming are the only nine states that do not impose a state income tax. Unemployment compensation received by locals is exempt from state taxation. Despite the fact that four of the states that do impose an income tax exempt those receiving unemployment compensation from the payment. Those states are (from left to right) California, New Jersey, Pennsylvania, and Virginia. Find out if and how unemployment is taxed in your state from the relevant tax department. Here is an index of their online profiles. A quick note on requesting tax withholdings on your unemployment benefits: you can do so by filing Form W-4V. The standard rate for unemployment withholdings is 10%. [B]What are the criteria for receiving unemployment compensation?[/B] Unemployment benefits are typically administered by the state in which you reside. Still, "unemployment" is a broad term that can include a number of benefits that are paid for by the federal government and given out by your state. Some businesses get unemployment insurance through other programs, like the Railroad Unemployment Compensation Benefits and the Unemployment Assistance under the Airline Deregulation Act of 1978. Federal workers and veterans can also take advantage of special assistance initiatives. A helpful hint: you need to include any benefits for the unemployed in your total income. Use the IRS's interactive tool if you have questions about whether a particular payment needs to be reported. [B]How to Report Unemployment Income and Pay Taxes[/B] By the end of January 2023, you should have received Form 1099-G if you were paid unemployment benefits in 2022. Your gross unemployment pay and any taxes withheld, if any, will be detailed here. Include a copy of Schedule 1 of Form 1040 with your federal income tax return to report this income. What if I can't come up with the money to pay my unemployment tax? Since most people receiving unemployment insurance are unemployed or have recently been laid off, it may seem unfair that they must also pay taxes on their benefits. An unmanageable tax bill may result. Even if this is the case, you must still file a tax return. If you can't pay your taxes in full by the first deadline, you will be charged interest and a late payment fee every month. In addition, there is a fine for not submitting a tax return. Whether or not you can pay the total amount owing, you should still file on time. If you can't afford to pay your entire tax payment right now, send in as much as you can to save on interest charges. You can also request to pay the remaining price in monthly installments. Requesting a payment plan from the IRS is easy; just visit their website, fill out Form 9465, or give them a call. [/QUOTE]
