Which form do I use to input interest received as part of a Federal and State income tax refunds ?

If it is included on the 1099-G, enter it that way. If it is reported on a 1099-INT, enter it that way. It will be taxed the same way. 

To enter, use the search box. 

Sign into your account and your return

Type   1099-G   into the search box   -OR-   Type   1099-INT   into the search box

Click on the "Jump to 1099-G" link  -OR-   Click on the "Jump to 1099-INT" link

If you did not get a 1099-G or 1099-INT

Click Federal on the left side-bar

Click Wages & Income along the top

Scroll down to "Other Common Income" click Show more

Scroll down to "Refunds received..." click Start

Hi, So I will be treating the interest from the IRS and State of California similar to interest from a Bank. For the Federal interest received,  what do I input for the "Received from" field in TurboTax?
Thank you much,
Vic

When you enter the interest, select that you will type the information in yourself, then use IRS as one, and State of CA for the other. I can add screenshots in original answer above.
