Deductions & credits

Nope, you are giving incorrect information.

Box 2 has the outstanding amount on  1/1 for existing loans, and the total loan amount on the day of origination for new loans obtained during the year. It is not zero for new loans.

 

What i  did was ignore box 2 for the new loan (since it wasn't funded on  1/1/) and added my two old loan box 2's  together, this corrected the CA mortgage adjustment error.
