Refinanced a home loan, do I add the payoff from the original home loan to the deductions for the new loan?

    No, only the interest paid in the tax year is deductible. 

     

    If the loan(s) had a high balance, the payoff of the first loan would lower your average loan balance for the year, but that is not anything you should need to address when entering your 1098 Forms into the TurboTax program.
