Can I file NY unemployment 1099-G forms for both 2023 and 2024 tax years at the same time?

Yes, you can definitely request 1099-G forms for both 2023 and 2024 tax years. The NYSDOL keeps these records for several years. You'll need to access your NY.gov account and go to the 1099-G section where you can view and print forms from previous years. Look for the dropdown menu that lets you select the tax year. If you don't see the option online, you can call NYSDOL and specifically request the prior year forms.

i had this same issue last yr. you gotta call them directly cuz sometimes the older 1099s dont show up online for whatever reason. took me 4ever to get thru tho.

Just to add some useful info - you can request 1099-G forms going back up to 4 years. I had to do this last year when my accountant discovered I was missing documentation from a prior year. The IRS requires that you report ALL unemployment income, even from previous years. So yes, you definitely need both years' forms. After struggling to get through on the phone for days, I finally discovered Claimyr (claimyr.com) which got me connected to an actual NY unemployment agent in about 20 minutes instead of spending hours redialing. They have a video showing how it works: https://youtu.be/Rdqa1gKtxuE - it was honestly worth it to avoid the frustration of constant busy signals. The agent was able to email me all my missing 1099-G forms the same day.

I work as a tax preparer, and I deal with this situation frequently. Here's what you need to know: 1. You MUST report all unemployment income to the IRS, regardless of which year it was received 2. You can request 1099-G forms for previous years (typically up to 6 years back) 3. If you file without including the unemployment income, you risk receiving a CP2000 notice from the IRS for underreported income 4. There's no time limit for requesting the forms, but there IS a time limit for amending previous tax returns (generally 3 years from the original filing deadline) If you can't access the forms online, calling is your best option. Request both years' forms, and make sure you have your NY.gov ID, SSN, and identity verification information ready when you call.

THEY MAKE THIS INTENTIONALLY DIFFICULT!!! I swear the system is designed to frustrate people so they give up. I went through this exact same thing and spent THREE DAYS trying to get someone on the phone. The website is useless - half the links don't work and when they do, the information is outdated. When I finally got through, the person told me they could have just mailed the forms automatically if I had checked some box buried in the settings menu. RIDICULOUS!!!

Hey there! Just wanted to let you know that I was in the exact same situation last month. I needed both my 2023 and 2024 1099-G forms. I found that if you go to your NY.gov account, then click on "Unemployment Services," then "Payment History," and then there should be a tab that says "1099-G Information." From there, you can select different tax years from a dropdown menu. If the website isn't working (which happens A LOT lol), definitely call them. I finally got through after trying early in the morning (like right when they open at 8am).

my friend had same problem last month and i think you can get older forms but you haveto do it by phone. the website only lets yoy see current year i think. or maybe your account is jyst glitchy, that happens alot with the ny unemployment site lol

Just wanted to follow up and see if you were able to get your 1099-G forms? Did you try calling again or use any of the suggestions here?
