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.
For calendar year 2009, the 1099-Gs will be mailed on or before January 31, 2010.
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. Email address:
1099@dllr.state.md.us
Phone number: (410) 949-0022 or 1-800-827-4839 - press the next sequence of numeric 'prompts' to reach a BPC Staff person: 1, 1, 3, 1, 4, 1.
