Deductions & credits

This is normal.  That is the entry area for Form 8938, which is an information only document.  It seems like this should be an instruction to the program, but no data on the Form 8938 flows out to other forms, so it isn't a "live" area of the return.   

It is a bit confusing that it asks this here, but it is just to record the answer on that specific form.  When you review your return after it's completed, you'll see where your answer lands - which is Part III of Form 8938.

Return to wages and income, then interest and dividends.  Even though you don't have a "Form 1099-INT", visit that section to enter the foreign interest.
