Get 1099-INT Form Filing Support

Form 1099-INT is used to report interest income. A form must be provided for each payee to whom you paid reportable interest of at least $10, for whom you withheld/paid any foreign tax on the interest, or from whom you withheld any federal income tax under the applicable withholding rules. These forms of interest may not seem like they should count as income, but they do. Sound complicated? That’s not all.

It’s important not to confuse income earned on interest with qualified and non-qualified dividend payments. These dividend payments are accounted for with the 1099-DIV form. Likewise, a specific kind of interest income—earned on publicly offered debt instruments called Original Issue Discount (OID)—is accounted for with the 1099-OID form.

That said, you can find online instructions from the IRS for both the 1099-INT form and the 1099-OID form here. If you’re looking for a different type of 1099 form, see our 1099 resource database.
