When you purchase a bond or note at a discount, you'll get Form 1099-OID (Original Issue Discount). The discount is taxable interest over the life of the bond, which gets reported every year you hold the bond, even if you don't actually receive any interest.
Here's how to enter your 1099-OID in TurboTax:
If the interest on the OID form is for U.S. Treasury Notes, is it taxable?
Yes, it is taxable on your federal return, however Treasury bond. interest is exempt from state and local income taxes.
If you have exempt interest dividends on your Form 1099-DIV or Form 1099-OID, then some of those dividends are likely not taxable to your state. You need to know form your broker what that percentage is. Once you have the percentage you can enter that amount so that TurboTax can carry that information and keep that amount tax free to your home state return.
See an example below where a 1099-OID has a Tax Exempt OID in Box 11 and the screen that follows to allow your entry for your resident state. There will be similar screens for 1099-DIV. If you imported you can select the correct item to edit.
Be sure to check the box 'I earned tax exempt OID in more than one state'. See the image below.
