Re: Re: Re: Re: Temporary Job Assignment

Thanks for the helpful reply.

Another related question/twist:
If my spouse's work provides a relocation package that makes it favorable to purchase a home in New York during my one-year fellowship, would we be able to deduct the mortgage interest twice (one for the usual mortgage interest deduction and again for lodging expenses during a temporary job assignment)?

Also, do you think that the actual purchase of a home might mitigate the case of establishing intent of moving back to our original home (Los Angeles) despite having a contract to return to Los Angeles prior to the start of the fellowship?

Thanks again
