Form 1099-G, Statement for Recipients of Certain Government Payments, is issued to any
individual who received Maryland Unemployment Insurance (UI) benefits for the prior calendar year. 1099-Gs
reflect Maryland UI benefit payment amounts issued within that calendar year. This may be
different from the week ending date for which the benefits were paid.
1099-Gs are required, by law, to be mailed by the end of January (January 31st) for the prior calendar year.
1099-Gs are only issued to the actual individual to whom benefits were paid.
If you have moved since filing for UI benefits, 1099-Gs
are NOT forwarded by the United States Postal Service.
You must contact the Department of Labor, Licensing &
Regulation (DLLR) - Benefit Payment Control (BPC) Unit,
for a duplicate to be sent to your new address.
