I've received a mail from IRS for the 1099 INT for 2021. Do I input this info in the Schedule B Form 1099 INT Worksheet and is this also being tax as income since I was not aware that I received any interest payment from IRS last year. Thank you.

    Yes, it would go in the 1099 INT worksheet for Schedule B and yes you are being taxed on it as it is interest income.

    Yes the IRS took so long last year to pay refunds they paid interest on it.

     

    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.

    Enter a 1099-Int  under

    Federal on left

    Wages & Income at top

    If you received a 1099-INT, then the amount on it has been reported as income regardless of whether or not you actually received a check.  You must report it as income on your 1040 return.
