σημεια αναφερθεντα/υποδειχθεντα σε εσας Explanation: It looks as if there were points the Mortgage Co., either verbally or in written form, answered for the applicant, NOT necessarily regarding him/herself, i.e. points OTHER THAN PERSONAL, so '..σχετικά με εσάς??' Δηλ., προσωπικα, βλεπω το ζητημα να ειναι στο 'με' και το 'σε' !!!!! Αν ειναι 'με' επρεπε να λεγει, π.χ. regarding you(rself) -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 1 hr (2012-08-13 08:36:18 GMT) -------------------------------------------------- The question was on an Inland Revenue form and NOT a Mortgage Company, as said on top. -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 11 hrs (2012-08-13 19:03:26 GMT) -------------------------------------------------- Having looked at Mr. Mohay's suggestions I agree with his explanations, namely, 'points' refer to an initial 'payment' by a borrower to a lender to lower the Interest to be paid subsequently. Being deemed as an 'advance interest payment' the IRS allow it as a deductible expense. So, <points reported to you on Form 1098> ??? Another American way of making Money!!!!! MY SUGGESTION IS TO LEAVE IT AS IS, i.e< ποιντς δηλωθεντα στο εντυπο....> and the praise and prize should go to Mr. Mohay. |

Reference: Τι σημεία; -- Πόντοι, εκατοστιαίες/ποσοστιαίες μονάδες! Reference information: What Are Mortgage Interest Points? Overview – A mortgage point is money paid upfront in return for a lower interest rate on the mortgage. Depending on how long you will be in your home, paying points may save you a great deal of interest charges in the long run. Function – One point is equal to 1 percent of the total loan amount. The amount of reduction in your interest rate that paying points can provide varies among lenders. http://www.soyouwanna.com/mortgage-interest-points-8586.html For the purposes of a tax deduction,mortgage interest includes the interest and points on a primary residence. The term “points” refers to interest that is paid at the time the mortgage is secured to reduce monthly mortgage payments. http://www.wikihow.com/Deduct-Mortgage-Interest -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 2 hrs (2012-08-13 10:12:05 GMT) -------------------------------------------------- Reported... ...που δηλώθηκε για σας (σχετικά με εσάς) από τον δανειστή σας (και αναγράφεται) στο Έντυπο 1098 σας. I use Turbo Tax and it states, if you paid more interest than your Form 1098 shows, you must attach a statement to your tax return that explains why you can deduct more than your lender reported on your Form 1098. http://www.loansafe.org/forum/bank-america-home-loans/47688-... |
