It may be pulled over from previous year's returns, or you checked the box in the beginning stating that you had mortgage interest or real estate taxes.

Just ignore it or delete the form if is bothers you.

To delete a form:

Log into your Federal return, click on 

Tax Tools,

Tools,

Delete a form,  delete the correct worksheet.
