Yes, if you are filing a resident tax return (Form 1040), you need to report your worldwide income, including interest income. Foreign banks do not issue Form 1099-INT. You can report that interest in TurboTax as if you received a Form 1099-INT. Go to: Federal Taxes (Personal in Home & Business version) - Wages & Income - under Interest and Dividends section, click Start/Update/Revisit on Interest on 1099-INT.
If you need exchange rates, please use the IRS website link: https://www.irs.gov/Individuals/International-Taxpayers/Yearly-Average-Currency-Exchange-Rates
Also remember to say "yes" or check the box when the program asks if you had "Owned or signed on a foreign bank, broker, or other financial account." If at any time during tax year you did not have equivalent of $10,000 or more on your bank account(s), then there will be no additional filing requirements. But if you do have additional foreign bank/asset required reporting to do, TurboTax will walk you through and suggest the next step.
If TurboTax doesn't prompt you for foreign account information, go to: Federal Taxes (Personal in Home & Business version) - Wages & Income - under the section Interest and Dividends start the interview for 1099-OID, Foreign Accounts.
