Unemployed people often forget to take advantage of certain deductions when they are filing a 1040. One of the major expenses an unemployed person can deduct is the expense of purchasing an airline ticket. Airfare is incredibly expensive and should always be deducted when possible on a person's taxes. An unemployed person must be sure that the airfare was used for interviewing with a company or some other employment purpose. If the trip had little to do with finding another job, then the airfare may not be counted as an unemployment expense. One should also keep the receipt of an airline trip.

If a Cosigner pays all of the the Home Equity Loan monthly payments does the Primary Signatory then get to claim the tax deduction on the interest paid or does the Cosignatory get such tax deduction?

You cannot claim a deduction for something you did not pay. If the primary signatory did not pay the interest, then this person does not get to deduct it. In order to claim a non-business/non-investment deduction for interest, the person claiming the deduction must (among other things) be the legal or equitable owner of the property. Usually, the cosignor is not the legal or equitable owner of the property, hence the cosignor cannot claim an interest deduction.
