My client uses Standard Deduction for the current tax year-2021,
but he used Itemized deduction last year-2020.
Do I have to report his State Refund he received during the tax year-2021 on schedule 1: Taxable Refund?

actually the answer is maybe.. some of it may be taxable.. all of it may be.. or none of it.. there is a state and local tax refund worksheet in the program. if you did their 2020 return it should mostly populate for you. I am finding many of these refunds are not taxable in 2021 as there was no tax benefit on the 2020 return due to the SALT limitation.

Yes - because he deducted those taxes on the 2020 return.
so now the refund is income.
