I received a 1099-INT from my bank after cashing savings bonds this year that I received as a child. There was only an option to input Box #1 (Interest income), which was $0.00, however, Box #3 (Interest on U.S. Savings Bonds and Treasury obligations) had a value with no place to input? Am I to just move forward?
