What is the "Payer's address" for the IRS? I received a 1099-INT (interest income from the IRS) which doesn't include this info.

On the "Federal Review" section, "Your to-do list", I have an entry for "Answers to review.  When I click Review, it says to "Check this Entry" for "Schedule B -- Form 1099-INT (Department of the Treasury Internal Revenue Service): Payer Street Address must be entered".  The letter I received from the IRS shows the calendar year, recipient's identification number, total interest paid or credited, and payer's federal identification number (38-1798424). But there's no payer address.  So what should I enter to be able to continue?  The purpose of it: "Statement showing interest income from the Internal Revenue Service)."

Never heard of needing that.   All you really need is a name and amount in box 1.   You don't even need the EIN.   I enter several interest without a 1099.   Did you enter it as a 1099 Int and put the amount in box 1?   I would try deleting it and enter it again.  I don't think it even asks for an address on the entry screen.

Did you enter a city and state?  I would just leave all those boxes blank.   It wants a street address because you entered a city.

I do not try deleting it. I had found another post, after posting mine, where others were saying to simply enter any other IRS center's address.  So I searched to find an address for the IRS office at that zip code 39901.  Google map put a drop pin right at an IRS office at Beverly Hills Dr & Buford Hwy, you'll see an "Internal Revenue Service (IRS)".  It's as though that building is its own zip code. Clicking on it showed the address:  4800 Buford Hwy NE, Chamblee, GA 39901.  I entered that and TurboTax was happy.
