Single Member LLC , Passthrough Tax Return , where to report LLC bank account 1099-INT?

[joycog23]

1099-INT is issue to my LLC

so question

1. If i report it as normal income under business since there is NO 1099-INT reporting in business section of turboxtax, i would be paying self-employment tax on it on top of fed + state tax, right? Even if i do it, how does IRS know i clearly reported 1099-INT back 

2. if i report it under 1099-INT schedule B in my personal return , how does IRS know it i properly reported since i will be putting my name in "interest belong to "?

Report the interest income on Schedule B, unless you are in the business of lending money or the interest is from notes or accounts receivable.

Even if i do it, how does IRS know i clearly reported 1099-INT back   Interest earned on a bank account used by a Sch C business is NOT income to the business ... you will NOT report it on the Sch C unless you want to pay SE taxes on passive income.  It is ALWAYS reported on the Sch B  UNLESS you are in the business of lending money.

2. if i report it under 1099-INT schedule B in my personal return , how does IRS know it i properly reported since i will be putting my name in "interest belong to "?   Even if the  EIN listed on the 1099 is the one for the Sch C business you will still list the interest earned on the Sch B ... the IRS matches the income from the EIN to the personal SS# because when you applied for the EIN you linked it to your SS# ... it is just that simple.
