@kcsopoci This makes more sense!  If DC allows you to file as Married Filing Separately on the same return, then this should not be an issue.  If your DC return is asking you to allocate your $2,500 student loan interest deduction between you and your spouse, you should do it pro-rata based on your actual amounts.  Above you mentioned that he paid $3,000 and you paid $1,000.  Therefore you would allocate 25% of the $2,500 ($625) to you and 75% of the $2,500 ($1,875) to him.
