Investors & landlords
I'm in the Deductions & Credits section
Do not enter the 1098 for that rental property in the Deductions and credits section. Everything "and I do mean "EVERYTHING") concerning your rental property is entered in the Rental & Royalty Income (SCH E) section of the program. For a property that was 100% rental the entire tax year with no personal use, there are no exceptions to this.
You'll be asked for 1098 information towards the end of the rental expenses section. That's where you will enter the 1098 for that property.
Make absolutely certain that you delete the 1098 from the Deductions & Credits section. Otherwise, you may have issues when dealing with the 1098 for your primary residence. (Not to mention you'll be double-dipping on deductions.)
