Taxpayers who received unemployment compensation during 1979 may have to include part or all of the payments in their incofie on their 1979 federal tax return according to a new law, explains the Internal Revenue Service. In order for a taxpayer's unemployment compensation to be included in income, the amount of the unemployment received plus his adjusted gross income before any exclusion for disability in come must be greater than the "base amount" for that parti cular filing status. The base amount is $20,000 for a single person and $25,000 for married persons filing jointly. A married person filing separately has no base amount, unless the couple was separated all year. If the income does not exceed the base amount, none of the, unemployment compensation wil be included in income, according to IRS. If the income is greater than the base amount, however, the amount to be included in income is one-half of the difference between the tax payer's income and his base amount, but not greater than the actual amount of unem ployment received. Recipients of unemploy ment compensation from the State of Oregon have been issued Forms 1099-UC from the Employment Division . Additional information can be obtained from IRS Publica tion 905, Tax Information on Unemployment Compensa tion, available free .
