Did you ever get this resolved? I do not have a FEIN (because I have not yet cashed the savings bond), but it won't let me submit without one.
This answer is not correct. You must report the interest on Savings Bonds when they mature, even if they have not been cashed. You won't have a 1099 if you haven't cashed them, and Turbotax will not allow you to proceed until you enter an FEIN number from a 1099. Leaving the field blank or entering all zeros does not work to bypass the problem.
Not true. You must report the interest when you cash them OR when they reach maturity, whichever occurs first.
