For the second year in a row, turobtax incorrectly added an equity line to my mortgage interest deduction calculation and allowed for a full deduction of mortgage interest. The IRS flagged my 2018 return as a result, and it's now being audited. While preparing the 2019 return, I encountered the same issue. I had to manually adjust my entries in the mortgage interest worksheet. Turbotax added an equity line maximum balance of $100K and summed up the maximum for home mortgage and an equity line to $1,100,000, then fully deducted mortgage interest. I do not have an equity line and didn't enter one. Why does this keep happening?
