PMI is tax deductible, new law, yeah. I just did my taxes with H& R and they put the PMI in for deduction. They put the up front PMI from my HUD and the monthly PMI listed on my 1098 form from mortgage company. You have to make less then 100k year. This supposedly started in 07 and has been extended.

If you really make that much, what are you doing paying PMI?

I didn't put down 20% on the house- had better uses for the $$- so it's not like I had a choice.

100k for a single or 100k married filing jointly?

It's not "can't"- it's "didn't". Money was cheap enough when I bought that it didn't make sense to put an additional $30k down to get to 20% from the 10% we put down- we had better uses for the $$.

And staying in NJ wouldn't exactly have been a smart move- I would have lost more than that $30k in equity between when we sold and now (based on what houses in our neighborhood are selling for now vs what we sold for).
