I got my (first) mortgage in June 81 and paid the points. I expected to close on the first of September but due to the builder's delays, I didn't close until late January 82. I wasn't able to take the tax deduction for the points at all because I didn't have enough itemized deductions for 1981 (the year in which the points were actually paid) R.
