Unable to Amend Return with 1098 showing Mortgage Interest but 0.00 Outstanding Principal.
I received a 1098 for Tax Year 2020 from a lender after I e-filed my 2020 Federal Return. My 2020 Federal Return was accepted and I am awaiting a refund. Today, I tried to amend and file an amended 2020 Federal Return. I tried to enter the new 1098 but TurboTax will not accept the 1098 because the Outstanding Mortgage Interest on the 1098 is 0.00. When I try to enter 0.00 and Continue from the screen where I entered the new 1098, TurboTax says there has to be a Value in the Outstanding Mortgage Principal box. I have tried backing out and re-entering but TurboTax will not accept a zero or zeros in the Outstanding Mortgage Principal box. Isn't 0.00 a value?
