Report interest received from IRS and VA as interest income on your 2024 Federal return. Information will carry over to your state return. If you moved out of VA, the interest income will be taxable in the state you lived in when you received it.

In TurboTax desktop:

Open or continue your return.
Select Federal, then Wages & Income.
Scroll down to Interest and Dividends, then select Start or Revisit next to Interest on 1099-INT.
Select Yes on the screen Did you receive any investment income? then Continue.
- If you see the screen Your investments & savings or Here's your 1099-INT info, select Add investments or Add another 1099-INT, then Continue.
On the next screen, skip Import and select Interest on the following screen.

In TurboTax Online.

Open or continue your return.
Select Federal, then Wages & Income.
Scroll down to Investments and Savings1099-B, 1099-INT, 1099-DIV, Crypto Gain/Loss Report then Interest on 1099-INT.
Select Yes on the screen Did you receive any investment income? then Continue.

If you see the screen Your investments & savings or Here's your 1099-INT info, select Add investments
Select Enter a different way and Select Interest.
