I consolidated my student loans this year and 1098-E combines all interest paid off by the servicer and interest I paid pre-consolidation, do I report that whole amount?

Yes, you can report the whole amount, but the deduction is limited to $2,500.

Thank you so much for your quick response!

Can I ask why that is possible? It seems odd to be able to report the whole amount when I only paid part of the interest and the rest was paid by the servicer during consolidation. I'm just trying to learn and understand.

When you consolidate your student loans, you will be responsible for repaying your loan servicer and the interest was paid in your name.
