My husbands daughter lives in Albania. He sends 250.00 monthly for child support. Can we claim that?I also refinanced this year. Is there anything I can claim from that

Child support is not deductible at all.

[SeanE1 · Accepted solution]

As Jerry mentioned, child support is never tax deductible.

If you refinanced your home in 2016, you may deduct the mortgage interest paid, property taxes in addition to taking the points and amortizing them over the life of the loan.  For example, if it is a 30 year loan and the points are $3,000, you would deduct $100 per year.  Please refer to the Link below for more refinancing advice.
