Accessing 2025 Unemployment Tax Forms: What North Carolina Residents Need to Know

Residents of North Carolina who received unemployment benefits last year can now access their 1099-G tax forms online. These forms are essential for filing state and federal taxes, as they detail the total benefits received and any taxes withheld. The forms are readily available through the secure MyNCUIBenefits account, accessible via the N.C. Division of Employment Security (DES) website.

For those who prefer paper documentation, requests for physical copies have been accommodated, with mailing commencing tomorrow and continuing until January 31. All paper forms are expected to reach recipients by early February.

Each 1099-G form, prepared by DES, reflects the total unemployment benefits issued in 2025 along with any withheld taxes. This year, DES has created around 107,250 of these forms for individuals who benefited from unemployment support.

Steps to Access Your 1099-G Form Online

To obtain the 1099-G form electronically, follow these steps:

Select View My 1099G from the menu on the left-hand side.

If there are discrepancies in the form, individuals are advised to contact the UI Support Center at 888-737-0259 for assistance.

Protecting Yourself from Identity Theft

Important: Those who receive a 1099-G form without applying for unemployment benefits may be facing identity theft. In suspected cases of unemployment benefits fraud, it is crucial to report via the online fraud reporting form or contact DES directly at 919-701-3543. Fraud confirmation by DES is necessary to amend the 1099-G.
