You can't edit the city and state fields in the review, even if you manually entered the form.   You have to exit the review and go back to the actual form entry screen.  

 

But, if you imported or uploaded it from an image, and it read any of those fields incorrectly, you have to delete the form and manually enter it.  We are working to improve the import functions.    Import Troubleshooting

In the Income section, scroll down to Investments & Savings, and choose Add/Edit.  

 

On the next screen, scroll down to Bank Interest, click the down arrow at the right, and choose Edit.

 

The next screen displays the entries so you can make changes.

 

In TurboTax Desktop, go to FORMS at the upper right, and Open Form 1099-Int to make changes on the form.

It displays entries for the various numeric Boxes, but not for my mailing address. Per the "Form 1099-INT Worksheet" on the "Check This Entry" page (final review), "Recipient's address and ZIP code" shows my City as "City town" and my state as "OR", presumably because it parsed my 1099-INT PDF incorrectly and read "Orlando" as Oregon 😕 Now it thinks my ZIP code is wrong because it doesn't match OR.

 

"Check This Entry" will only let me edit the ZIP code; the other fields on the "1099-INT Worksheet" it shows are greyed out.

 

Will I have to re-enter that 1099-INT completely manually?

Never mind, I gave up and did exactly that. Thankfully, in the case of a 1099-INT it's quite simple, just the institution name and Box 1 amount in my case.

 

Intuit should either fix their PDF scanner, or allow me to edit the entire worksheet to make corrections.

Great, thank you - but one of the discussions I linked above is from ~2yrs ago 😉

I've done this multiple times of just entering the institution name and amount in box 1 but still its automatically putting in an address i guess and says zip code doesnt match that random address. I cannot change any of the payer or recipient address.

You must delete / trash all the duplicate 1099-INT forms; did you do that?
