Deductions & credits

On your return, you enter the form 1099-INT in the federal section of TurboTax, then "Income and Expenses", then  "Interest and Dividends", then "Interest on 1099-INT."

 

On your mother's return, you have the option to simply not report it, since the income is minimal and not reportable anyways, since it's not her income.

 

Or, if you're concerned about getting in trouble for not reporting it since it has your mother's social security number on it, you can report it the same way and it will have a minimal impact on her tax liability.
