So What is the Mortgage Credit Certificate?
The Mortgage Credit Certificate (MCC) program offers qualified Hoosiers a Federal Tax Credit. The tax credit amount ranges between 20% and 35% of the interest paid on a mortgage each year, depending on the mortgage loan amount. The tax credit can be claimed each year, through the life of the mortgage, as long as the home remains the borrowers principal place of residence. The maximum credit per year is $2,000.
