Mortgage interest statement for taxes help?

My mother is legally separated from my step father. Before they were married, she owned her current home. Once they were married, the home is both their names. She has owned the home for about 18 years. She received a mortgage interest statement the other day for the home with both names on it. She has lived in the home all of last year while her husband was not there. They are filing separately. Is she intitled to use this form alone or does her husband have to use it also?

    Whoever actually *paid* the mortgage interest is allowed to claim it as a deduction on their taxes.

    a million) you have 3 years from the unique due of the return to amend and declare the refund. The last date for the 2006 return is 4/15/2010. 2) you may no longer in undemanding terms upload up 2006-2009 and declare the deduction on your 2009. you will might desire to amend each and each individual 12 months and declare it on the each and each respective return.
