Points for deductions that appear on my closing statement

I am looking at my closing disclosure form and under origination charges is has an amount However, under % of Loan Amount (Points) is is blank. Do I still include the amount?

Deductions & credits

Origination fees can be deducted as points if they are a percentage of the loan amount (not a percentage of the sales price and not a flat fee) and if they are not allocated to any specific purpose, such as document processing, appraisal, survey, or anything else.)

For example, my mortgage had a $500 application fee.  That was not deductible points because it was not a percentage of the mortgage amount.

Deductions & credits

Under origination charges is states $1,175.00. So I do not include that when I file?

Deductions & credits

The only closing costs that are deductible are
•daily mortgage interest from the date of the closing to the end of the month, which may not be included in the 1098
•property taxes that are included as a credit to the seller for taxes they prepaid but that are allocated to the period of tie you own the home are deductible property taxes as if you paid them yourself
•a lump sum mortgage insurance premium is deducted over 84 months. It may or may not be included on your 1098.  If not included, you will have to figure it out and add it yourself, turbotax doesn't do a go job with this.
•points are deducted as mortgage interest if they meet the rules

All your other closing costs are not deductible. Instead, they are added to the cost basis of the home and may reduce your capital gains when you sell.

If your origination fee does not meet the test to be deductible mortgage "points" then it is not deductible.
