I tried to file and I'm met with an invalid CUSIP on my form. It's for a whopping $2 in interest on a money market with my financial advisor. It's the same number as last year but I didn't have any issues then. Perhaps a form change from 2020?

It's 7 digits instead of the required 9 alphanumeric. Do I just leave it blank? I cannot move on without altering this but I'm at a loss and haven't seen this asked anywhere.

You shouldn't need to enter that. What box is it in? Box 14? Just leave it blank. You don't need the EIN either. All you need is the company name and amount.

Don't enter the bank name and don't try to import it. It is just as fast and easy to manually enter it. At the bottom pick Change How I enter my Form

Then on the next screen pick I'll Type it in Myself

I can't e-file or print to manually file. TurboTax online sends me in a loop where it wants cusip number for 1099-Int. As soon as i click email, it wants to fix federal returns.

Had to remove the 0 from the from several times then it worked.
