Question
Mortgage Interest Credit Refinance Credit Allocation Form 8396

Answer

Who Can Claim the Credit

You can claim the credit only if you were issued a qualified Mortgage Credit Certificate (MCC) by a state or local governmental unit or agency under a qualified mortgage credit certificate program.

The home to which the certificate relates must be your main home and also must be located in the jurisdiction of the governmental unit that issued the certificate. 

If the interest on the mortgage was paid to a related person, you cannot claim the credit.
