How do I claim Mortgage Interest earned on a Private Mortgage investment (I lent money and receive interest payments). Do I report this as self employed earnings?

No, not unless you have a business that provides loans. Instead, you can enter the income in the Investment section, under Interest and Other Investment Income.
