When MFS, does the amount of points paid and taxes paid on the statement need to be split equally between both individuals?

Mortgage interest

You and your spouse can choose to split the interest and taxes paid however you wish. Or one of the spouses can take all of the deduction.

 

If you're in a community property state, generally it would be split evenly.
