 You must report all taxable and tax-exempt interest on your federal income tax return, even if you don't receive a Form 1099-INT.  Any interest below $10.00, banks do not have to send out a 1099-INT form.

 

 

Do I need to report savings account interest less than $10?
 
Interest is Taxable Even Without a 1099-INT

If you earn less than $10 in a year from a financial institution, the bank isn't legally required to send you a Form 1099-INT documenting the interest. ... Legally, you're required to report all of your interest on your tax return, even if you don't receive a Form 1099-INT.
