If I am only able to get 5% of money from a frozen account, do I need to claim interest earned off the 5% received? Or do I wait until the account is not frozen and claim the interest?
How do I apply interest towards tax filing ?
@Delturba01 thank you for the question. I gather off the bat, the question back would be frozen for what? Interest earned is reported on Form 1099-INT. If you received a 1099-INT you should report the interest even if the account is frozen. Ultimately the question of being frozen does not impact whether the interest is taxable income.
I do hope it is quickly unfrozen.
All the best,
