Purchasing a home is not an event that would be reported. However, you would be able to deduct the home mortgage interest and points paid to acquire the house. In order to enter that information, you would:

1. Log into Turbotax

2. Click "Take me to my return"

3. On the left click "Federal"

4. On the header click "Deductions and Credits"

5. Click "Mortgage Interest, Refinancing, and Insurance (Form 1098)"
