Reissued Mortgage Credit Certificate Program

When a homeowner using an MCC refinances their mortgage, they must get a Reissued Mortgage Credit Certificate (RMCC) to replace their original MCC.


Since the mortgage interest rate changes, the MCC tax credit must be recalculated. If the RMCC application is not received in 1 year, the IRS will cancel the tax credit.
