Property taxes: I
I refinance my property in Feb 2020. My property taxes were held by Escrow for the
April 10th payment, which was paid by Escrow and not by the Mortgage company that I was assigned. So the mortgage company sent me a 1098 but left box 10 blank ( since they did not pay my taxes). I contacted the mortgage company and they referred me to the escrow company. . I spoke with the escrow officer, who informed me that they do not issue a1098, and that I should use my final closing statement in order to get the tax credit. When I go to the property section it will not allow me input unless I have a 1098. How do I claim these property tax $1,562.20

Deductions & credits
Yes, you can claim the property taxes in your return. I would suggest to try the following.
-
Log into Turbo Tax
- Go to federal>deductions and credits
- Your home>show more
- The second sub-heading should say property taxes
- Enter them separately in this section.
- I tested this in my Turbo Tax test account and it worked fine without a 1098 form.
