State-Level Mortgage Interest Deduction

Alabama conforms to federal itemized deductions, so if you itemize federally you can also deduct mortgage interest on your Alabama return at rates up to 5%.

Combined Federal + Alabama Savings

If you paid $18,000 in mortgage interest last year and itemize on both returns, your combined tax savings would be approximately:

  • Federal (22% bracket): $3,960
  • Alabama (5% rate): $900
  • Total estimated savings: $4,860

These are estimates based on a 22% federal bracket. Your actual savings depend on your specific tax situation.
