BJay if you earned a small amount of interest no big deal. It rather depends on how much you have on deposit there and the amount of interest paid to the account. If you've got a large account then yes, the IRS could conceivably contact you and want their share! Don't they always? If it's a tiny account I wouldn't bother going back to amend my taxes, but next year you ought to include any interest earned on your Federal Income Tax return.
