So, I'm having the same issue, but I don't really understand the right way to address it.
If I override the 1098 information to mis-state my mortgage balance and interest paid to be the amount that it should be (ie -- my actual balance all year was $1.8 million, paid $45k in interest -- TTax is using the full $45K in my deductions -- I could restate the 1098 from the bank to show a balance of $750K and $18,750 in interest), then won't that cause a flag in the IRS system since the 1098 won't match the one filed?
