Interest Paid for 2022
It is that time again to notify your borrowers the amount of interest they have paid! We have an “Interest Paid” letter that you can use - please review our KB article Payments+ Generating Annual Interest Letters for instructions. For clients that have borrowers eligible for an IRS form 1098, please review our KB article Payments+ 1098 Report. We do not support generating a 1098 form. We do support the Lender being able to mark which accounts require a 1098 form, and then generating a report with the necessary information, to complete the IRS form or forward to an outside party for filing.
***Please note you may see some UI changes, as some obsolete menus have been removed from the Payments module, like our Payments > Actions > Generate Tax Forms menu, as they are no longer supported. ***
Payments > Billing menu report fields added!
Several Payments > Billing menu fields have been added to the Payment Account category in Reports.
