Is Interest Paid by State for Overpayment of State Taxes to be Federal Return Reported?

I overpaid the amount of taxes due to the State of Illinois and by the time they sent me a refund check it included about $35 of interest on the amount that was overpaid, which was also paid me. Is this reportable income on my federal return?

Yes, please enter that as interest income.
