So, I figured it out. I had uploaded a 1099-INT pdf file to TurboTax. The document was read and all the information displayed was correct. However, the interest amount shown was never actually added to my interest income or total income. I even followed through and finished my Federal return to the end once to view the PDF and sure enough, the amount wasn't carried through to there either.

So I went back to the interest income screen and uploaded the document again. I then clicked on the amount, deleted it, manually typed in the correct amount, and clicked to save it. This time it stuck, and was added to my income.
