Deductions & credits

Are you trying to enter the mortgage interest received from your daughter as income on your return?  Or are you trying to help her enter the interest she paid on her return?

 

If she is trying to enter the interest, the selection I gave will open up the private lender option.  It does not actual list the loan as a seller finance.  See the screenshot of the form below:

 

If you are trying to add the mortgage interest you receive to your return, Vanessa A provided steps above to help.  I have copies her steps here for easy review, "This will go under Interest and Dividends in the section that says Interest from Seller-Financed Loan.  To get there, you can go to the search bar and type in Seller-financed loan, then select Jump To.  Then walk through the steps to enter the interest paid to you.  You will need to enter the Name, address, and SSN of the person who is paying you the interest as well as the amount of interest you received. "

 

Again, the wording seller-financed is a way for TurboTax to open the private financing option.  If you still have questions, please respond and we will continue to help.
