What form do you have?  You are stating two 1099 forms.

 

Form 1099-R is used to report distributions from annuities, profit-sharing plans, retirement plans, IRAs, insurance contracts, or pensions.  Box 7 on the 1099-R form is for the code for what type of distribution you had.

 

Form 1099-INT is the IRS tax form used to report interest income.

Sounds like you are trying to enter something in the wrong place.  A 1099R is a document that shows money you took from a retirement plan like an IRA, 401k, etc. or pension income.  A 1099INT is for interest you got on an account with a financial institution.  

 

Are you trying to enter a 1099R?

To enter your retirement income, Go to  Federal> Wages and Income>Retirement Plans and Social Security>IRA  401 k) Pension Plan Withdrawals to enter your 1099R.

 

Or are you trying to enter a 1099INT?   Go to Federal>Wages & Income>Interest and Dividends>Interest on 1099-INT
