I am a resident of MA, but going to school in CT so I had updated my accounts to my temporary school address to get mail there. I received a 1099-int showing my address in CT, but no state tax was withheld. I did not earn any income in CT so I would not file a return there, but I am worried if they may see the 1099-int showing a CT address and expect me to file and report that interest income there. Is that the case? Or can I just ignore the "CT address" of the form and report it under my MA state as if the 1099 had listed a MA address? Thanks!

Ignore it. You don't need to file a CT return unless you have CT nonresident income you earned while in school there. If CT asks questions, you will provide documentation to show that your CT "residence" was a temporary school residence and that you are a Massachusetts resident by domicile.
All of your income is reported on your Massachusetts return regardless of where it may have come from because your resident state is allowed to tax all of your income.
