Mortgage Interest and Property taxe deduction

I have already added mortgage interest and property taxes for deduction as primary residence. I also use the residence as home office. When I enter expenses under home office, its mentions mortgage interest and property taxes again. I don't think I can take deduction again but want to post this question. Please let me know.

No, you can't take the deduction again.

If you enter your mortgage and property taxes into your Home Office section, then Turbo Tax carries the remainder over to Schedule A, so you only have to enter it once.
