Bank refuses to issue a 1098 because the interest I paid on my HELOC was less than $600.  I know the amount of the interest paid from a bank statement.  How do I enter this on TurboTax?

The interest on a HELOC is tax deductible as an itemized deduction if the proceeds were used to improve your home.  Even though you didn't receive a Form 1098, you will enter the interest in the same way you would if you had a Form 1098.  Under Deductions and Credits, select Start/Edit next to "Mortgage Interest and Refinancing (Form 1098).  On the "Let's import your tax info" screen, select "Change how I enter my form".  Select "Type it in myself".  Continue and the information for your HELOC.
