A Mortgage Credit Certificate (MCC) is a tax credit that reduces your federal income tax liability. The tax credit can help you qualify for a higher costing home and/or help make your mortgage payments more affordable. Your tax credit each year amounts to 20% of your annual mortgage interest payment. You continue to receive a tax credit for as long as you own your home, even if you refinance.
