After you file

From the IRS?  The IRS paid interest on refunds last year because they took so long to send it.

 

IRS interest 1099 form probably only says 1099 (rev. 10-2013 or 9-07) on it.  The IRS EIN # on  it is 38-1798424.

 

You shouldn't need to enter an EIN.  Just enter a name like US Treasury or IRS.

 

Enter interest from the IRS like a 1099Int and put the amount in box 1.  Enter it manually and just enter IRS for the payer.  Don't enter any other info like the address or a EIN.

 

Enter a 1099-Int  under
