If entered correctly, the amount of the mortgage insurance is reflected in your return and you should see an increase in your itemized/ standard deduction amount when you view the tax summary screen. To view the summary screen, go to tax tools>tools>view tax summary. Here view the area of the summary screen that says Itemized/standard deduction.
You may wish to test this by first not recording the mortgage insurance information in box 5 and then viewing the tax summary screen. Then
view the itemized/standard deduction amount in the summary screen. Then go back and record the mortgage insurance premium amount and then view the tax summary screen and see if there is a difference.
