I'm in the same boat. I am the lender on a private mortgage to my brother. The IRS instructions do not say where to send form to them. Does anyone know where to send Form 1098 mortgage interest to the IRS? After sending a copy to the borrower, do we even need to send to the IRS? Thank you
You would only need to file a Form 1098 if you were in the business of lending money. If you do not have this type of business then there is no need to provide a Form 1098 to the IRS.
