Living in an RV as second home

[Madjr]

I am in the military.  I understand that I an allowed to claim moving expenses for travel and lodging for me and my household as a result of a military move.  I had to move without my family two months earlier and lived in our RV at a campsite for those two months while also maintaining my house at our old assignment.  The military will only reimburse for 10 days of temporary lodging.  Can I deduct the remaining amount that I paid out of pocket from my taxes?

Did you purchase the RV, or are you renting it?  If you purchased it you can deduct mortgage interest and real-estate taxes on up to two homes.

As long as the  RV is security for the loan used to buy it, you can deduct mortgage interest paid on that loan. your RV can also be treated as a qualified second home, and the same homeowner deductions apply.

I purchased the RV.  Thanks for the help!
