761.0. "Any interest on Savings?" by LEDS::GRAHAM () Tue Feb 22 1994 19:33

    Is the DCU paying any interest on Savings accounts?  The reason I ask
    is that my wife or one of my kids received a statement from the DCU
    saying that they had no reportable interest for the last tax year.  I
    know they don't pay much (less than 3%) but I would think there would
    be a few dollars to report.  ...Or don't kids have to report interest
    income?

761.1< $10.00CONSLT::DALRYMPLETue Feb 22 1994 22:249
    It is my understanding that less than $10.00 annual interest is
    deemed not worth generating a form 1099 to report the interest on.
    As the tax brackets move in increments of $50.00, $10.00 or less
    shouldn't affect anyone's tax liability.  Your year end statement
    should show how much interest was posted to each account.  It is
    just not reported to the IRS (with copy to you).

761.2No money...no interestLEDS::GRAHAMWed Feb 23 1994 11:466
    Ah, that probably explains it.  My wife doesn't keep the money in her
    account long enough to generate any interest! ;-)
