There's a process to getting the mortgage payoff statement. First, you'll need to contact your lender and let them know you want the information. Depending on your lender, you may have to sign in to an online account, call a helpline, or send a formal letter to start the request process.
TILA requires that a mortgage lender or servicer send ''an accurate payoff balance within a reasonable time, but in no case more than seven business days'' after receiving the borrower's request. 15 U.S.C. § 1639g.
(c) A beneficiary, or his or her authorized agent, shall, on the written demand of an entitled person, or his or her authorized agent, prepare and deliver a payoff demand statement to the person demanding it within 21 days of the receipt of the demand.
Your mortgage lender sends your Form 1098 to you, generally by the end of January of the filing year. Some lenders may make their tax forms available online, in which case you should check your account to download.

Interest is found in the income statement, but can also be calculated using a debt schedule. The schedule outlines all the major pieces of debt a company has on its balance sheet, and the balances on each period opening (as shown above). This balance is multiplied by the debt's interest rate to find the expense.
Lenders multiply your outstanding balance by your annual interest rate but divide by 12 because you're making monthly payments. So if you owe $300,000 on your mortgage and your rate is 4%, you'll initially owe $1,000 in interest per month ($300,000 x 0.04 ÷ 12).
