3. On the next page tap "Type it in myself".
4. On the next page fill in the "Received from" field.
5. Enter the total interest amount in Box 1 and tap "Continue".
6. The next page displays "Uncommon situations".
Check off "I need to adjust the interest reported on my form".

select "Received all or part of this interest for someone else".
