Unemployment benefits are normally fully taxable on your federal return, they may be tax exempt on certain state returns. However, the first $2400 of benefits earned per person in 2009 is exempt from federal tax. Withholding from your benefits is optional. But even though you might not choose to have taxes withheld, you will still have to calculate how much you owe when you fill out your Form 1040 at the end of the year.
Income from unemployment is reported on your individual income tax return (Federal Form 1040). If you want/need to pay in towards what you expect to owe in federal income taxes on your unemployment income during the year, you can make estimated income tax payments on Forms 1040-ES. You do need to put your social security number, tax form number and tax year on your check, but you do not need to tell tham that it is for taxes on unemployment income. Do be careful to avoid penalties and interest for underpayment of taxes as the IRS generally prefers to get paid throughout the year, just as the rest of us do.
