I’m sorry for the loss of your grandmother. Do you mean that you are making payments on a loan that is still in your grandmother’s name?

Most lenders do not allow a loan to be assumed. Are you legally obligated to pay the debt? This is one of the requirements to take a mortgage deduction.

Points refers to a fee paid to your lender for a reduced interest rate. A point is equal to 1% of the mortgage amount. Assuming this is not a new loan for you, there would be no points to record. See below link.
