In January of each year, Internal Revenue Service (IRS) Form 1099-G is prepared and mailed by the Kansas Department of Labor (KDOL) to each claimant who received unemployment compensation during the previous calendar year. This form shows the total amount of unemployment compensation paid during the calendar year and if elected, will show state or federal income taxes withheld. This same information is also provided to the IRS.

1099-G forms will be mailed to claimants prior to Jan. 31, 2020. Read more here.
