Abstract
The "fractional share" rule for joint tenancy property, which was enacted initially in 1976 and became fully effective for deaths after 1981, has generated a problem for deductibility of mortgage obligations on the property involved. Careful planning attention should be given to the situation if problems of deductibility are to be avoided.
