Just enter it the same way as a 1099INT. At the bottom pick - Change How I enter my Form

Then on the next screen pick I'll Type it in Myself. Just enter the payer and put the amount in box 1. Very common.,,,

It should not require the FEIN to input the interest. Select Interest on 1099-INT, start/revisit/update, add interest income, I'll type it in myself, type in the information and you are done. You will select no unusual situation.

I faced the same issue. It asks for federal identification number!

EIN is not a required entry when entering an IRS form 1099-INT. If you are seeing an EIN entry box, you may enter all 9's. Enter your 1099-INT as follows:

Down the left side of the screen, click on Federal.
Down the left side of the screen, click on Wages & Income.
Scroll down to Investments and Savings, click Show more.
Click Start / Revisit to the right of Interest on 1099-INT.
Click Add investments.
At the screen Let's find your account, select Enter a different way.
At the screen How do you want to add your docs?, select Type it in myself.
At the screen OK, let's start with one investment type, select Interest and Continue.
Enter interest information.
