I work in US, but my family is in Canada, and we bought house in Canada (no house in US). Wonder whether the mortgage interest paid in 2008 is tax deductible. Thanks.
Sorry, I forgot to mention the question is about the deduction in US income tax return.

empire asked:


Last year I moved and I’m paying an interest only mortgage. It was my understanding that I would receive more money on my return. I actually ended up receiving less than previous years. This year I did a preview with Turbotax and it shows that I’m getting back a substantial amount more. How can I check last years return to see if the mortgage interest was properly calculated on last year’s return?

I am in serious debt with the IRS. We owe every single year, as we have no dependants. I am now filing single zero, but fear I may never catch up from the 15K we already owe. What else can we itemize besides our student loan and mortgage intersts?

I forgot to file taxes in 2005. I have to turn in past 2 years tax returns for final mortgage approval. I filed the return right away, dropped it off at local office with check for balance. Will this hurt my chances of the mortgage going through? Bank had my W2s and tax returns will match up.
