Home mortgage interest (taxes)?
I have had a mortgage since 2004 and I've never had my mortgage interest deducted from my taxes. Is there a way to go back and have '04 through '07 deducted on one return? Or did I snooze and lose?

Absolutely. You will need to file a 1040X for the past three years (2004, 2005, 2006) and of course claim the mortgage interest and property taxes (on both your car and your home) on Schedule A Itemized Deductions.

But hurry, 2004 is considered an open year until April 15 of this year - you can go back three years plus the current filing. Good luck!

If your mortgage interest would give you itemized deductions higher than your standard deduction, you can go back and file amended returns for those years and still get whatever tax benefit you would have gotten. 2004 amendment deadline to get your money back is 4/15/08.

No, you can't just take it all on one return. Each year has to be done separately.

You will have to file amended returns for those years. You can file amended return for 2004 as long as it is filed by April 15, 2008.

You can file a 1040X for each year ( Amended). The 2004 tax year 1040X needs to be filed by April 15, 2008 to meet the 3 year deadline.
** Make sure the amount of your deductable Mortgage interest + Property taxes EXCEEDS your standard deduction; otherwise there is no advantage for you.

You can file amended returns. When you itemize (which you must do to claim mortgage interest), you would need to have more than your standard deduction in expenses before it would be worth your time to claim.

$10,700 for married filing jointly; $5,350 for singles; $7,850 for head of household status.

Perhaps that is why you didn't claim in the past?

Form 1040X must be filed within 3 years of the date you filed the original return or 2 years after the date you paid the tax, whichever is later.

You might want to take them all in to a professional and pay to have them all amended at once.
