Our calculator limits your interest deduction to the interest payment that would be paid on a $1,000,000 mortgage. Please note that in addition to the $1,000,000 mortgage debt limit; this calculator assumes that your itemized deductions will exceed the standard deduction for your income tax filing status. If your itemized deductions don't exceed your standard deduction, the benefit of deducting the interest on your home will be reduced or eliminated. For 2008, the standard deductions are $10,900 for married couples filing jointly, $5,450 for married couples filing separately and singles, and $8,000 for heads of household. You should also be aware that the total tax savings may be less for higher incomes that have their allowable itemized deductions phased out.
