Get your taxes done using TurboTax
there isn't a drill down unfortunately back to the details from these accrued interest adjustments, you just have to keep track what you input and the total, and go back over the 1099-INTs if it doesn't total as expected.
A common reason to have issues with accrued interest not giving the expected figures on Fed or State, is if your 1099-INT has multiple income types (Box 1/3/8), because you can only input 1 accrued interest adjustment in TT and can't specify which box it refers to, so TT will incorrectly pro-rata it across them all. If you have Box 8 tax-exempt (muni) interest, this can affect your Schedule B as the portion of accrued interest applied to the munis will not reflect on Schedule B. The solution is to split up your 1099-INT between the different types of income (along with their respective premium in Boxes 11-13) so the 1099-INT with the adjustment only has one income box to adjust.
