Mortgage interest counted onceFails
Payoff interest 2,150 is inside the Lonestar 1098 box 1 13,900 and was added again. Correct 8a: 13,900 + 997 + purchase points 4,800 = 19,697.
Method: Read the lender statements: D55 (1098) says box 1 includes interest paid at payoff; D56 (payoff statement) says its interest is reported on the 1098.
Proposed: 21,847 → 19,697 · Tax: fed +559 · CA +103
