I bought a house in 2025 and received a Form 1098 (Mortgage Interest Payment) which contains box 6 (Points paid on purchase of principal residence). However, the Intuit TurboTax Home & Business form does not have a box 6. What should I do?

  2. Add/Edit Lender: Review your lender information and select "Edit" or "Review".
  3. Find Points Section:Continue through the interview until the screen "Did you pay points in 202X...?".
  4. Enter Details: Choose the option indicating you paid points (e.g., "I paid points when I... purchased [or] refinanced").
