I am in the same situation. I have two 1098s because my mortgage was transferred to a new lender mid year. The original lender has the correct amount on box 2. The new lender left it blank. I’ve called the new lender multiple times about getting a corrected 1098 which has that amount filled out. They refuse to correct it and told me to just use the amount in box 2 from the original lender when filing my taxes. However that is not what they reported to the IRS so I don’t know what to do. This is very frustrating. I’m itemizing so this matters for the mortgage interest deduction.
