How can I add my 2015 1098

I did not file taxes for 2015, I would like to file my 2015 1098 for my mortgage, how can I do so?

You can not report a 2015 form 1098 on your 2016 tax return. The only way to claim it is on 2015 tax return. You can claim expenses only in the year that you actually pay them and not in any other year.

I have a similar question -In 2015, I owned a home with my husband (now ex-husband).  I purchased a home in Dec 2015 and had a separate 1098 for that home which he was not owed in at all. We had to file jointly in 2015 because the divorce was not finalized until May 2016.   I deferred the 1098 claim on the new purchase since he was not owner.  Is there a way to claim that now?
