No.  To add information from your 1099-INT please follow these steps:

 

  1. Click on Federal > Wages & Income 
  2. Scroll down to the Interest and Dividends section and click on the Start/Revisit box next to Interest on 1099-INT.  
  3. If you have already entered interest, you will see a screen Here's the interest we have so far.  Click Add interest income to make another entry.  
  4. If you haven't yet made any entries for interest, you will see the screen, Did you receive any interest income?  Click the blue Yes box.
  5. On the screen, Choose your bank or brokerage, click Continue.
  6. Make the entries from your 1099-INT on the next screen, Let's get your 1099-INT or brokerage statement details.  

Now check to see if a 1099-DIV was created that you need to delete:

  1. While in your return, click on Tax Tools > Tools (in the black bar at the side of your screen).  
  2. In the Tools Center, under Other helpful links click on Delete a form
  3. Click Delete next to Schedule B -- Form 1099-DIV and follow the onscreen instructions. 
  4. Once you have finished deleting the desired form(s) click the Continue with My Return box (in the lower right of your screen).
