Hi! I uploaded my 1098 for my primary residence. I took out a HELOC with another lender to build a detached garage, but I never received a 1098 form for it. They said I don’t qualify for a 1098. I’ve paid over $3k in interest so I would like to include that on my taxes. Where do I put that? thanks!

    You need to enter the mortgage interest on the loan that you didn't receive a Form 1098 in the same place you entered the Form 1098 information from the one that you did receive. You will find that in the Deductions and Credits section, and then Mortgage Interest, Points, Refinancing and Insurance. Enter in the information as if you had received a Form 1098, in the entry screen for that form.
