Savings bond interest?

[emezinis]

In the summer of 2016, I cashed in savings bonds that matured in 2014 and 2015.  I then amended those tax returns and paid the additional tax for those years.  Now my 2016 1099-INT includes the interest for these savings bonds.  Do I enter the total interest amount or should I subtract the bonds interest as I have already paid taxes on that?  If I enter the total amount, do I then list what I paid as additional payments to the IRS for 2016?

You should enter only the interest you have not yet paid tax on. You do not enter any amount as payments made to the IRS.

As you enter your savings bond interest you will check the box that you need to adjust the amount.  (see image attached)
