Can you please clarify, did you mean Form 1098-T, tuition statement?

Unfortunately you cannot simply figure it out yourself. You need the form i order to take the deduction. Call your lender's customer service line for a replacement 1098 form. Some lenders charge fees for replacing lost forms. If you never received your 1098, the lender may issue you one for free. Verify the lender has your correct mailing address if you are not living in the home.

Please keep in mind, if your mortgage interest payments and other itemized deductions weren't bigger than your standard deduction, you don't need the form.
