I walked thru a 1099-INT entry in the "Online" Premier product with my brother, over the phone....with him in another state.
WE carefully created entered a new 1099-INT in our own Online tax accounts, confirming each selection step-by-step, (bypassing the initial EIN search page) to enter it manually, and talking thru each of the steps to make sure each selection along the way was the same.......he was still required to put in an EIN on the main 1099-INT form, while I wasn't. Have no idea why....different TTX servers with slightly different software setups?

But...I'm pretty sure the Navy Fed EIN is 53-0116705

Federal tax withholding on a 1099-INT (box 4) is fairly unusual, but I guess it could be done in certain situations.
