Hi,
I use form 1040NR to file tax return s a non resident alien. I bought a house in 2011 and began paying mortgage interest and mortgage insurance premium. The 1040NR Schedule A does not have a section of "Interest you paid" as can be seen in 1040 Schedule A. So how can I claim tax deduction? What forms should I use?

Thanks very much for you attention and help!

Sorry, but non-resident aliens CANNOT deduct mortgage interest on Form 1040NR.
