Question
Why does my 1099_INT automatically register as a foreign account if the bank is locally owned bank in the USA. I don't want to pay for upgraded version if I don't need to
My 1099-INT is around $11 of interest that should be reported. The bank is a local midwest USA bank that is definitely not a foreign account. When I enter the 1099INT in the section that states "investments, interest, etc" it automatically makes my next question about my foreign account values....but I don't have a foreign account. Because it deems I have a foreign account I then need to upgrade from the free version to the paid version to support that. How can I circumvent the foreign account stuff?
