You do not send a 1099INT to your friend. You would get a 1099 from the person paying you interest like your bank. But individuals don’t send 1099 forms. All you need to enter is the bank name or who paid you and put the amount in box 1.
Enter interest received like a 1099-Int under
Federal Taxes tab (Personal for Home & Business)
