I purchased a new home and my original mortgage was resold right away by my mortgage company. I received 2 separate 1098's each listing the mortgage interest paid (the original mortgage company also included the points I paid) but both showing the same mortgage origination date. Turbo tax makes it look like I took out 2 loans when I enter the 2 1098's since it forces me to enter the amount of the loans. It's not really accurate to classify the resold mortgage as "refinance" either.
I'm stuck since there is no option to list the resold mortgage as a "transferred" or resold mortgage and just enter the 1098 without entering the full amount of the mortgage again. How do I properly enter both 1098's without it seeming like 2 separate loans for close to the same amount (the purchase price of our new home)?
