So in 2014-2015 i worked some time in another state. I had some extra taxes withheld from my paychecks. My company paid for a tax firm to do my taxes, hurrray! And all was good. i got a small little 200$ refund from said crappy state and i have been working all happy doppy back in my home state without income taxes. HURRRAYY!!
Now comes 2016 tax season and i have this 1099-G in the mail!!! The best i can come up with, is the state is trying to tax me and my state tax refund from LAST year. So i am being taxed on my refund check from them. Basically treating a tax refund as income. Or am i missing something?
Turbo tax doesn't seem to have a good spot for this, it thinks it is unemployment, or some type of farming thing.
I think i am just going to throw it away, i never plan to step back into that state in my life :/
