One thing you might need to check....do you have any $$ in boxes 1 or 8 too?
If you do, take your box 3 $$ out of that 1099-INT (together with box 12 too if any) and place those $$ in it's own 1099-INT before reporting the accrued interest related box 3 $$ on that separate 1099-INT.
That might fix it.
______
Whenever accrued interest is to be reported....if any combination of $$ on at least two boxes 1,3,&8 exist on a single 1099-INT....the accrued interest must be reported on it's own separate 1099-INT, along with whatever bond-type the accrued interest refers to. 1&11 go together, 3 & 12 go together, 8,9&13 go together.
