1098 form box 10 "Other" Where are property taxes?

Box 10 on my 1098 form just lists the principal paid and the ending principal balance. It doesn't say anything about property taxes. Where do I find these taxes if I use an Escrow account?

The property tax is not required to be printed on a 1098, although many mortgage companies print it as a matter of courtesy by finding a blank spot to print "Property taxes $XXXX.XX" (typically near the bottom).

If this doesn't appear on the front of your 1098, then look on the back, or even on the second page. Look especially for a listing of transactions related to your escrow account, because the payment of the property taxes will show up as a disbursement from escrow.

If you can't find the property taxes anywhere on the 1098 or the accompanying pages, then give your mortgage company a shout.
