I had these two critical issues in TurboTax software regarding points:
1. Box 6 doesn't appear. The app asks about points not reported in 1098 later in time. But they WERE reported in 1098, so it doesn't look right to put them there.
2. The app amortizes the points even when the taxpayer asks not to (by not checking the corresponding checkbox).
I was able to resolve them but making sure that I checked a checkbox saying that I purchased or refinanced a house in the same year. Then, it asked for the points in 1098 and the amortization disappeared.
