When refinancing your primary home, when the amount of cash received is different (lower) than the amount of the loan increase ( difference being closing costs, taxes, interest ect), which loan increase amount do you use to calculate the amount under 750,000. Thanks

If your taxpayer took out cash, then you also need to consider what the funds got used for. I would start here:

You might have a mixed mortgage to contend with. That Pub has tables for you to work through.
