Question

I just got a 1098 for a refinance of my home. In block 1, my mortgage holder put interest at $500. Is this income or deduction?

The amount shown in Box 1 of the 1098 is the amount of interest that you paid the mortgage holder. That number is a deduction that will be included with your other itemized deductions on Schedule A.
