Savings bond interest

I have several US Savings bonds that accrue interest as the years go by. I am not cashing these bonds. I need to know where and how to enter the interest gained each year.  Since they are not being cashed, I do not have a 1099 int, or FEID to enter. In the past my father has entered each year's interest manually on our taxes, but I cannot figure out how to add it using Turbotax.    I was unable to enter the amount for 2023 and am working on 2024. Can anyone assist with where to find the place to enter the interest on uncashed bonds, without a 1099 INT?

You can enter this information as if you received a 1099 INT. Fill out as much information as you can so the taxable interest is reported.

 

You will need to amend your 2023 return to report this interest in the same manner I described above.
