Why is my itemized deduction only 16600 when I have 33900 in mortgage interest expence?

It may have been limited if the mortgage loan exceeds $750,000 ( $375,000 if married filing separate) and if your mortgage was originated after 2017. You are only allowed to claim interest for the first $750,000 of the loan balance.

Before 2017, IRS allowed a mortgage interest for up to $1M in loan balance but reduced with advent of the TCJA legislation in 2017.

Trying to determine ahead of next year's filing season if I can use TT Basic or Free Filing options
