The tax deduction is calculated differently from the interest deduction.

  • The $2,209.00 is mortgage Insurance (commonly called Points). This is a form of interest.
  • Add this to the $4,702.67 and you will get
  • $5.682.67 ( I'm not sure of the small difference).
  • This is the interest portion of your itemized deductions.

Generally, there are four types of deductible taxes:

  • State, local, and foreign income taxes
  • State and local general sales taxes
  • State and local real estate taxes, and
  • State and local personal property taxes

The cumulative total can not exceed $10,000
