Question

If I receive social security benefits but I am a co-owner of a house can the other co-owner claim the entire mortgage and property taxes?

Since they paid most of the mortgage

Yes. You are not required to claim property taxes or the mortgage information on your return. The other co-owner can claim it as long as you do not.
