Ghost or orphan 1099-INT Forms reported at Federal Review step in Turbo Tax Online version

I'm running to weird situation when I go through the Federal Review step using the TT's online or Cloud version.

 

I've checked all 1099-INT forms I received and they have been filled up correctly. However. when I go through the "Federal Review" step it reports 3 1099-INT forms that need to be reviewed and when I clicked on them they are all empty/blank forms. It looks like a bug somewhere in the system where these ghost forms hanging in there and show up during final review. Unfortunately, there is no way to delete them.  I'm hoping these are harmless warning and TT lets me proceed with my filing the return.

Has anyone experienced similar issue ?

IF you haven't actually filed yet...you can usually delete the forms.

 

1)  get into your tax return somewhere.

2)  In the left menu, select "tax Tools"

3)  Select "Tools"

4) From the popup menu select "Delete a Form"

5) a long list of all your forms should now show up.

6)  Note:  At the bottom of the Federal list...there is a rt-arrow to display more pages if you don't see them on the first page.

5) Look for various entries of "Schedule B - Form 1099-INT (payer name)"  and a trashcan.

6)  At the very bottom of the page is a "Continue" to hit to get you back to your tax file interview.

Problem Might Be.....do some of the ghost 1099-INT forms have the same Payer name as the ones you did use??  IF so, you may have to delete both, then return to the program to re-enter the 1099-INT forms you really need.

@SteamTrain 

Thank you for the reply.

 

I followed the instructions and was able to delete the ghost forms.  They were all empty fields and look like they appear after my Broker sent out a revised form to me (including 1099-INT) and somehow TT created them when performing the sync up. 

 

Thanks again for the help.
