Foreign bank account H&R block schedule b

So I'm filling out my taxes on H&R block I answered the questions that I had a foreign bank account with over 10k and that I will file FBAR in the my info section. 

I added the interest I made on the 1099-int section. 

 

Is that all I need to do as far as foreign bank reporting goes apart from the FBaR form? Can't find a schedule B section in any of documents on H&r block. So I am to assume it will be auto generated now I answered the questions by saying yes. 

 

Schedule B seems to be the only schedule form that won't show up in the search bar at the end. I do have the 1099-int form added to the my income section. 

 

Just wanted to make sure I'm reporting the foreign bank question on my tax return.

Interest is reported on Schedule B, so the software should generate one. I use TurboTax so can’t really help with your finding the form on H&R software.

As far as foreign bank reporting goes, probably.

 

Another one to keep in mind is FATCA, but the limits are higher. $50,000 if single, $100,000 if married filing jointly. I believe that has a wider range of assets that need to be reported however.

 

Do you have a retirement account? Savings account? In a trust? The different types of accounts can be treated differently for tax purposes, as well as the country itself because of tax treaties. These can make something tax-free in one country taxable in the US.

 

But yeah, FBAR and FATCA are the biggies.
