Form 1098

You should enter your two Forms 1098 into TurboTax as they are. ‌Enter your Form 1098 from your original loan first and then your refinanced one second.

You must answer the questions in TurboTax correctly for TurboTax to recognize that one loan is a refinance and the other was the original loan.

Enter the original loan first

1. Go to the screen that says asks of you paid a home loan in 2024, answer "Yes".
2. Enter your Form 1098 information from your original mortgage.
3. It will ask, "Is this 1098 the most recent for your loan?", Answer No." 
4. Answer the remaining questions regarding your original loan

Enter the 1098 for the new loan second:

1. On the "Your 1098 summary screen", select "Add a new 1098".
2. Enter the details from your 1098 for the refinanced loan.
3. It will ask "Is this 1098 the most recent for this loan?"  Answer, "Yes". This lets TurboTax know that this is the most recent loan balance to use for your deduction.
4. On the "Let's get some details about this loan" screen, make sure to  answer "This loan is a refinance of a previous loan".
5. When you see "Thanks, we got all your mortgage info" select "Continue".
6. When you're all done, you'll see both of your forms on the "Your 1098 Summary" screen. 
7. You can select Done to finish.

Enter your Form 1098 from your original loan first.  Answer "No" to "Is this the most recent for your loan?"
