The form 1099-INT- is used to report interest income as well as federal withholding and foregn tax paid.  You may want to clear the form and then re-enter the 1099-INT information to fix the error

I am also having this problem.  On the 1099-INT Box 6, Foreign Tax Paid, the amount is $0.0.  Box 7 says " -" for Country, as there is no country for Box 6.  As of March 14, 2022, TurboTax is saying that this dash is an error.  And TurboTax wants me to enter a country to get past this issue otherwise I have to paper file.  How can this be solved so I can e-file?

It depends. Try deleting the 0.00 and leave it blank. Let me know if this works.
