Deductions & credits

Your tax deduction is $10,000 and your mortgage interest deduction is $12,000, so the total is less than the standard deduction for a married couple filing joint of $24,800. 

 

If you are filing single, the standard deduction is $12,400. 

 

Do you have any rental or self-employment income that is taking some of your mortgage interest deduction away?
