Two people claim the same mortgage intertest? Maryland

[TrappedMD]

I have a deal with my fiancee that I can take the entire federal mortgage deduction on our home because I paid the entire down payment. Today I found a copy of her tax return and she is claiming the entire deduction on her return. My return was mailed in last week hers has not been turned in yet. She does not know that I saw her return. What will happen if she sends in her return with the same deduction?

If you can not talk with your fiancee about this issue, you seriously need to be holding off on the wedding!
