It is not necessary or a required entry for the Federal identification number on Forms 1099-INT. You can proceed to enter the interest and move to the next entry.
i received a letter from the IRS saying that they gave me interest with my refund. no 1099 just said that i must report it as income and gave me their tax ID. how does it get reported in turbotax???
IRS interest 1099 form probably only says 1099 (rev. 9-07) on it. The IRS EIN # on it is 38-1798424.
Enter interest from the IRS like a 1099Int and put the amount in box 1.
Enter a 1099-Int under
Federal
Wages & Income
Interest and Dividends
Interest on 1099INT - Click the Start or Update button
Put the interest amount in box 1
For the IRS? Delete that one and Enter interest from the IRS like a 1099Int and put the amount in box 1. Enter it manually and just enter IRS for the payer. Don't enter any other info like the address or a EIN.
It says "Investments and Savings" now on the updated version rather than "Interest and Dividends." Is this correct?
@jpro1231 Where does it say Investments and Savings? Can you post a screenshot?
