I have 20K in State/Local/Mortgage Int. TurboTax is not letting me deduct Tax prep fees because it claims I am using STD Ded. 2017 TurboTax Prem Win CD Updated 3/10/2018

Tax prep fees on the Sch A have nothing to do with the mortgage interest ... they are limited and must be more than 2% of your AGI which is highly unlikely so you will not be able to deduct them.  If you are using the downloaded version switch to the FORMS mode and look at the Sch A lines 22 - 27.
