1099-G FORMS AVAILABLE

The Illinois Department of Employment Security has announced that 1099-G tax forms for 2025 are now available for individuals who received unemployment insurance benefits. Recipients should expect either an email notification or a mailed hard copy of the form. For added convenience, claimants can access their 1099-G directly by logging into their IDES account online or by calling the agency’s Tele-Serve system at (312) 338-4337. These tax forms are required for filing state and federal taxes, so recipients are encouraged to review the information as soon as possible to ensure accuracy before completing their returns.
