If i purchased my home in 2010 and never claimed the points, can i claim them on this return

No, unfortunately you cannot. Taxpayers have three years from the date of the original filing to amend a return. So, for example, if you filed your 2010 return by 4/15/11 you would have had until 4/15/14 to amend it so to deduct your points.
