You do not have to split property taxes and mortgage interest.
However, please note that when a married couple files separately, both spouses have to use the same deduction method; Standard deduction for both OR itemized deductions for both.
If one spouse used itemized deductions, the other also has to itemize even if the itemized deductions are less than the standard deduction.
