If the client did not itemize on the 2020 tax return, just go into the carryover worksheet and delete the GA refund carryover, as it does not impact the 2021 return in any way. If, however, the client did itemize in 2020, you have to go onto the GA DOR web site and navigate the maze to get a copy of the 1099-G. I did this with a client recently, and the issue was compounded when the GA site said that there was no 1099 form of any sort for my client. We could see in the client's bank records that the refund was issued, so we are still trying to sort it out. If all else fails, I plan to remove the GA refund on the Carryover worksheet and enter the refund into Schedule 1, Part I, Line 1.
