To make it easy for everyone, the interest and SSNs should all match up. Mortgage interest and sch B direct match.

 

The mortgage interest should be entered as follows:

  1. Select mortgage interest
  2. Lender name - enter parent's name
  3. Property type- primary, continue
  4. This is a seller financed loan and did not receive 1098  (you both say that you bankrolled the mortgage and receiving interest)
  5. Enter address and SSN of parent, continue
  6. mortgage information

 

Since you are reporting the interest on your sch B. enter:

  1. 1099-INT
  2. I will type it in myself
  3. Received from - child's name and amount
  4. continue
