The instructions say 'not required to file if interest is not received in course of trade or business' Since the sch E asset was sold then there's no more 'trade or business'... but who knows how the IRS wants to interpret this stuff... if you have any questions on how they're going to interpret then I'd just file the 1098 and not worry about it... (also, see example in who's required to file)
I'd rather be flying........

Skylane - I'm not asking the question - I'm answering it. The bold above is a truncated version of the original question. Since it was marked solved it accepts no more comments.
The client of the questioner does NOT have to file a 1098.
