I received bank interest from a foreign bank. It is a small amount but should be reported in 1099 int form . As the bank in the foreign country does not give any form I have to fill in the information myself. I can not find the bank name in the list of banks. What should I do ?

Skip past the screen with the list of banks by selecting "Skip Import" or "I'll type the info in myself".

Then enter the bank name and the interest in the area for Box 1. Leave the EIN field blank if you see it.
