Support CenterEntering information from 1099-INT and 1099-DIV in SureFire
The 1099-INT is an interest statement, and the 1099-DIV is a dividend statement. These are both reported on the Schedule B. There is an Interest Statement and a Dividend Statement which you can link to from line 1b (for interest) or 5a (for dividends) of the Schedule B by pressing F9. Use these statements if there are more than six items of interest income or more than 10 items of dividend income, or if you need a worksheet to enable SureFire to correctly handle interest or dividend income, regardless of the number of items. If you use the statement, make all entries on the statement.
Below is information on how to use the columns (these are for interest, but some apply to both interest and dividend statements. Information on dividend only columns is below.):
Payer (interest and dividend statements) - Type the name of the Payer.
Box 1 or 3 amount- Type the total amount of interest paid.
TSJ (interest and dividends)- If you need to split income between taxpayer and spouse on the state return or to compare married filing joint vs married filing separate, use this column. Type "T"" if the interest is owned by the primary taxpayer; type ""S"" if owned by the spouse; type ""J"" if owned jointly. The amounts entered as ""J"" (joint) will be split at 50% for the taxpayer and the spouse.
State adjust +/- Amount(interest and dividends)- These columns affect the state return only. If the interest is taxable on both the U.S. and state returns
