Investors & landlords
We rent a bedroom in our house. Why does it seem Turbotax has us entering in our mortgage details a second time? I don't see anywhere where it says to split up things like the mortgage interest, property taxes, etc. This seems like it would create inaccuracies in our section for the actual mortgage deduction. But claiming it twice doesn't seem right either as it's the same house, not a separate unit.
Turbotax also seems to have difficulty understanding that although we rented the bedroom 208 days, we also lived in the house far more than 162 days (turbotax wants it to add up to 365 days). Seems Turbotax thinks this bedroom is an entire unit in our house when it's not.
