IRS paid me interest last year, and i received a letter stating it is interest income. Will IRS send me the 1099int or should I just report this as an income in my return?

They might send a 1099 but you don’t need it. Enter interest from the IRS like a 1099Int and put the amount in box 1. Enter it manually and just enter IRS for the payer. Don't enter any other info like the address or a EIN.
Enter a 1099-Int under
