The amount in Box 1 must be reported under Interest Income. You should keep the 1099-INT with a copy of your tax return for your records.

Who is it from?  It usually is from your bank reporting how much interest they paid you.  Interest is taxable.  Is it from the IRS or your state?  They may have paid you interest on your last year's refund.  Do you remember getting any interest on an account or something?
