Tax help for military filers

I have reported the Navy Federal CU import problem to TurboTax, and they are investigating it.

Here's how to manually enter a 1099-INT.   This will give you a shortcut to the correct topic, or you can navigate there like you've already been doing.

  • Log in and open your return ("take me to my return.")
  • Once the return is open, click SEARCH in the top right corner.
  • Enter 1099-INT without quotes and click the blue magnifying glass icon.  Do not use the dropdown menu, or it may not work.
  • Then choose Jump to 1099-INT.
  • Next screen:  Did you receive any interest income?    Yes.
  • On the next screen "Lets get your tax info", do NOT enter thing on the search line.  Instead go down to bottom right and click a button:  "I'll type it in myself."
  • At the next screen you can enter the institution's name and start entering data.   If you have more than Box 1 on your 1099-INT form, put a checkmark in the little checkbox that says "My form has more info", and you will then see more data fields appear.
