Hi,
this is my first year of collecting Social Security benefits, around $21,000 and around $9000 W-2 Wages. I don't understand why my mortgage interest I paid of almost $10,000 did not cause me to receive a deduction. TT says I get a deduction yet the amounts I get back don't change. Same thing happens when I put in my Charitable contributions? In the past I always got a tax break on my mortgage interest.
Any suggestions?
