Hi. Thanks for your reply, but I can't (shouldn't) alter the actual paper form that the mortgage company sent me, and I'm assuming I shouldn't check box 7 in my TurboTax program if it's NOT checked on the real form 1098 my mortgage company sent.
My property address is my only owned property, and it is my only residence. So, box 7 SHOULD be checked.
In my opinion, I'd either need a corrected form from the mortgage provider, which I've called and the customer service rep just said she'd mention to other people there what I thought was a mistake (I'm sure nothing will happen), or I have to leave box 7 unchecked in my TurboTax program, with no address in box 8, which TurboTax complains about understandably. It states "This is a very unusual circumstance."
Guess I'm between a little rock and a hard place in this situation. I have to mark what is (or in this case isn't) on the actual tax form, but TurboTax doesn't like it. And I'm guessing I'm not going to get a corrected form from the mortgage company :( I think I should, because the last couple years I looked back on, box 7 IS checked on the 1098 from the mortgage company, just not this year for some odd reason <sigh>
Thanks again for the input.
