Thanks Diane, however on my 1098 from my lender, they did list an amount in box 2, and if I don’t enter that into TurboTax, it has a “needs attention” next to each of the 1098 after I am done entering them.
At the bottom of the 1098 from my lender, it says “Box 2. Shows the outstanding principal on the mortgage as of January 1, 2019. If the mortgage originated in 2019, shows the mortgage principal as of the date of origination.”
Should I ignore TurboTax’s suggestion of leaving it blank, and put the values in, so that the software doesn’t tell me “needs attention” for leaving them blank?
Neither of these were cash out refinances, and both were with the same lender.
