    Yes, if you are a resident of Delaware and received unemployment benefits in 2024, this would be considered taxable income in Delaware. The state of Delaware specifically states, "Every resident must report all income earned during the taxable year to Delaware, regardless of the source."

    When you receive your 1099-G to report this income, you can enter this in our federal income section. This amount will carry over to your state return automatically.
