Definition of Points:

Points refer to the cost of obtaining a mortgage loan, most often the loan-origination fee. In most cases, points can be deducted in full as mortgage interest on Schedule A on your 1040. If you don't qualify for a full deduction, you may deduct the points over the life of the loan. Read Publication 936 to see if you qualify for the full deduction.
