Thanks for the links, @ReneeM7122. I have followed instructions of removing any entered 1098 data, both by deleting the form in forms view and also by deleting the data entered on 1098 entry screen. Before entering 1098 dat again, I first confirmed there are no data entries on the mortgage worksheet or on Schedule A. Have even deleted .tax2020 data set and started completely over. And TT deluxe continues to crash and reboot. I can go no further than the screen to enter amount and date data for loan paid off in 2020 (the perm loan) and Jan. 1 balance on refi loan. I am clearly doing something incorrectly, but am not sure what. One thing I have wondered about is whether TT using standard deduction in 2019 instead of schedule A tax return is an issue, but that feels like a stretch even to me.
I have used TT since 2006 and have never encountered anything like this. But I have never had a build to perm bridge loan (2018) that converted to perm loan in 2019 when we moved into new house, sold original home (already paid for) in 2020 and paid down perm loan in 2020, and refinanced about a month later in 2020.
I am at my wits end.
I would appreciate any other thoughts you have. And tried to lay out the scenario above in case something comes to mind. Thanks again.
