If you still need more space, attach separate statements using the same format as lines 1 and 5, but show your totals on Schedule B. Put your name and social security number (SSN) on the statements and attach them at the end of your return.  \nTIP  \nSpecific Instructions  \nInterest and Ordinary Dividends  \nPart I. Interest  \nLine 1. Report on line 1 all of your taxable interest. Taxable interest generally should be shown on your Forms 1099-INT, Forms 1099-OID, or substitute statements. Include interest from series EE, H, HH, and I U.S. savings bonds. Also include any accrued market discount that isincludible in income and any gain on a contingent payment debt instrument that is includible in income as interest income. List each payer’s name and the amount.  \nDon't report on line 1 any tax-exempt interest. See Tax-exempt interest, later, for more information.  \nFor more information on stated interest, original issue discount (OID), market discount, contingent payment debt instruments, and premium, see Pub. 550 and Pub. 1212.  \n!   \nCAUTION  \nThe market discount on a tax-exempt bond is taxable interest income and not tax-exempt interest.  \nSeller-financed mortgages. If you sold your home or other property and the buyer used the property as a personal residence, list first any interest the buyer paid you on a mortgage or other form of seller financing. Be sure to show the buyer’s name, address, and SSN. You must also let the buyer know your SSN. If you don't show the buyer’s name, address, and SSN, or let the buyer know your SSN, you may have to pay a $50 penalty. If you or the buyer do not have an SSN, use the appropriate TIN for the filer or recipient of Form 1098. For more information, see General Instructions for Certain Information Returns (2025) .  \nNominees. If you received a Form 1099-INT that includes interest you received as a nominee (that is, in your name, but the interest actually belongs to someone else), report the total on line 1. Do this even if you later distributed some or all of this income to others. Under your last entry on line 1, put a subtotal of all interest listed online 1. Below this subtotal, enter “Nominee Distribution”and show the total interest you received as a nominee. Subtract this amount from the subtotal and enter the result on line 2.  \nInstructions for Schedule B (Form 1040) (2025) Catalog Number 70541Y  \nApr 23, 2025 Department of the Treasury Internal Revenue Service [www.irs.gov]","cbCain6iI2O0Sx3F","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCain6iI2O0Sx3F","pdf",153064,"English","# General Instructions\n## When to Use Schedule B (Form 1040)\n## Reporting Amounts and Payers\n# Specific Instructions\n## Part I.
