Where do I enter 1098 mortgage deduction?

Filling out the form for deductions I only see the 1098 entry for property tax. When I complete that section there is no place to enter mortgage interest paid but the amount shows $0. Where do I find the mortgage interest deduction area to fill in the amount?

    Go to Federal> Deductions and Credits> Your Home to enter mortgage interest, property taxes, and loan origination fees (“points”) that you paid in 2023.  You should have a 1098 from your mortgage lender that shows this information.  Lenders send these in January/early February.

    Thank you. I was confused because it seemed like all I could do was change the bank.
