How can I get Mortgage Insurance premiums to calculate? Once everything is properly entered in the Smart Worksheet on Schedule A after line 8c, nothing flows to line 8d.

The Qualified Insurance Premiums Smart worksheet indicates on line G the premiums will be recorded to schedule A, line 8D, which is reserved. Nothing is coming through there. How can I get the flow through (or override to the correct answer)

MIP was not extended for 2018. Some say it might still be but....as of now, no.

It was retroactively extended.  That is why many lenders have issued corrected 1098s.

I don't think so.

Back for the 2017 tax year it was extended later in 2018...but not for the 2018 tax year.

".....It was retroactively extended.  That is why many lenders have issued corrected 1098s."

Wanna' provide some concrete back-up for that statement?   Seems to me all the pro's on this forum would know of that; altho I do admit to a lot of tunnel vision right now.

I haven't seen any corrected ones....the originals seem to have the PMI already on them...not that it does any good.

My bad. HR 284 was introduced to permanently extend it, but I now see it never got past Ways & Means

Check IRS Publication 936, it was updated on Jan 24, 2019, it says the PMI deduction is gone for 2018.   

Tons of old articles out there on the internet that show its been extended, but they are wrong.
