You'll need to explain that more.
Interest from 1099-INT's, K-1, or what?    And what are you experiencing by "doesn't add up?"

Interest from 1099-INT. I have ~$200, but sum shows up as ~$400. Even when I delete the 1099 form (there is only one), I have ~$200 in interest income show up on the summary page.

Try this:

With your return open, click in the left menu column on TAX TOOLS, then TOOLS.
In the Tools window, choose "Delete a form."
That will show you the forms in your return.

In that list do you see a 1099-INT you don't recognize?   It may say something like Schedule B - Form 1099-INT (untitled)

If you deleted the Schedule B, then be sure you re-enter everything that might have been on it:  1099-INT, 1099-OID, 1099-DIV,  K-1 interest.  Whatever your situation is.

No, there wasn't. I ended up deleting the entire schedule B and re-importing everything and that worked. Seems like a software glitch. Very concerning that TB has this problem.
