    All you need to enter is the bank name or who paid you and put the amount in box 1.

     

    Enter interest received like a 1099-Int under

    Federal Taxes tab (Personal for Home & Business)

    Wages & Income

    Interest and Dividends

    Interest on 1099INT - Click the Start or Update button

    Report the interest you received that wasn't reported on a 1099-INT the same way you would if you had a 1099-INT.  When the program asks for the Federal Identification Number (FEIN), leave it blank.  That's it.

    I left the FEIN blank and continued, but then this item was labeled "needs review". Is it ok to leave it like that?

    When you enter Interest from a 1099-INT, you are only asked to enter the bank name, no FEIN.  Are you sure you are entering this in the correct place?
