Hopefully, you gave them your January 2005 check early (in
December 2004) so you will get 12 months - not the 12 that
you thought.

If you paid it in 2003, it can only be deducted on your
2003 return. It doesn't matter when it was due.

Default Deductible Mortgage Interest - When Paid vs. When Due

I bought my first condo in late 2003 and did not have enough
interest or other deductions that year to itemize. For
2004, I do plan to itemize. Looking at my 1098 for 2004, I
noticed that my payment that was due in January of 2004 was
not included because my mortgage company cashed the check in
late December 2003. Is there any way for me to adjust my
1098 so that I can deduct all 12 months of interest for this
year?
