Return to the interest portion of your return and Review your entry. The subsequent questions should still be available.

 

To return to this section of your return, inside TurboTax, follow these steps:

  • Enter 1099int in the search box.
  • Select the Jump to  link in the search results.
  • At Review your 1099-INT info, select Review.
  • Tax-exempt details can be entered once the box is checked: My form has info in other boxes (this is uncommon).
  • Continue through the rest of the interview.

Thanks, but nothing, in suggestions I have received thus far, have opened the follow-up questions.  I appreciate the answers and believe the responder believes his/her answer to be correct, but alas.....  They all take me back to the place where I should be able to make the needed changes, but the access options are not presented.  Nothing to the issue is evident in the area where the follow-up questions were originally presentedd.

Is it possible that you have already filed your return?   If you already filed, you won't be able to make changes.   Changes to an already-filed return are handled by filing 1040X.  That form won't be ready in TurboTax until later this month.   So, if you have already filed, you will need to come back to make changes to your tax-exempt interest.   

 

If you have not filed yet, the directions above will allow you to edit your interest entries.    Are you asking about interest on a K-1 or some other form (or a state return) by chance?    Please provide some more details regarding your interest, the steps you have already taken, and the changes you are wanting to make.   What follow-up question are you looking for?   We would love to help; thanks!
