Description

An MCC is a dollar-for-dollar credit against your federal income tax liability equal to 10 percent of the annual mortgage interest you pay. The remaining 90 percent may still be taken as a tax deduction. The MCC is effective for the life of your mortgage, as long as you live in the home.
