The loan is larger than $750K and was refinanced with a cashout option back in 2022. I've allocated 25% of the primary home to the renter and am splitting expenses including interest accordingly. I've listed the portion of interest in schedule E which seems to be the correct value however when I uploaded my 1098 for the mortgage interest in the deduction section, all of the value are correct when I review it but in the summary table it shows a much higher value.

Please clarify if you imported Form 1098 from your mortgage company and also entered it for your rental property.
