Question

I am being asked for 1098 info for a company I no longer have a loan with. How do I move forward without entering the info?

If the form 1098 transferred over from last year, delete the form. To delete a form that came in the mail (for example, W-2, 1098, or 1099) it's best to do it from that form's summary screen.

 

  • Type 1098 in the search bar and click on jump to 1098 in the search results to get to the summary screen.

If you did have a mortgage on form 1098, the IRS lets you deduct your mortgage interest, but only if you itemize deductions. You can't deduct the principal (the borrowed money you're paying back).
