Yes, it sounds like you qualify. To take the deduction, the rules say you must:

  1. Have an ownership interest in the home OR be liable for the mortgage payment
  1. Not deduct the same amounts twice (meaning you and co-owner don't deduct more than total interest)

See the answer below for more info:
