Bought house this year but didnt receive 1098

Hi,
I bought house this year and start paying mortgage from Oct 2016. I did not receive 1098 form from my bank. Can i use closing document for tax filing?

Thanks

Deductions & credits

Yes, you can.

Lines 801 and 802 are your mortgage points, which probably are deductible. This information may be on your 1098 too. 

See What Information Do I Need From My HUD Statement?

You can also deduct mortgage interest paid in the last three months of 2016. Consider asking your lender for a statement if you have not received one.
