If you are renting the property below market rates to a related party, you cannot report a loss. If the loss is because that's the best you could do in an arm's length transaction, then you can and should report the loss. In any case you must report the rental income you receive. If you elect for some reason not to show all of the expenses, there is no law that requires you to do so.

Your fiance and you just bought a house together you will not be married until 2009 How will you file the interest paid for 2008?
First and foremost, only the person who actually paid the mortgage interest (from his/her own funds) may deduct any of it. Then, it depends on how the house is deeded. If you own it in joint tenancy with rights of survivorship with your fiance, the person who paid it may deduct it. If you split the payments, you may split the deduction in the same proportion as you paid it. If you own the house as tenants in common, each of you may deduct as much as you actually paid, but only to the extent of your ownership interest in the property -- probably 50%. That is, even if you paid 100% of the mortgage payments, you may deduct no more than half of the interest.

Is the interest deductible when you use a home equity loan to pay off a second mortgage?
The interest on the second mortgage is deductible but not the home equity loan. If you could deduct the interest on the equity loan also, then you would be double dipping and the IRS doesn't like that. In every situation, one party can and the other party can deduct the interest. Someone has to pay tax on the money transfer.
