I want to get certain whether it is true or not, heard that mortgage insurance premium would be deductible. Is it?
Hi wygm,
As far as I know, if you itemize your deductions, then you would be able to deduct mortgage insurance premiums in connection with a mortgage for the purchase of your main home. However, the amount of deduction is limited if your adjusted gross income is more than $100,000. You wont be able to deduct if your adjusted gross income is more than $109,000.
Thanks

what happens between $100,001 and $108,999, james?
Hi George,
I got this information from http://www.irs.gov/newsroom/article/0,,id=202593,00.html and what I understood was that if a person crosses the $109,000 limit, he/she would not be able to go for the deductions. However, if a person cross $100,000 limit, then a limited amount of deductions are allowed.
Thanks
