Bought a motor home last year. Can I deduct the Sales Tax?

Here's how to enter the sales tax you paid:

1. Open (continue) your return if it's not already open.
2. Inside your program, search for sales tax and then click the "Jump to" link in the search results.
3. On the Let's Compare screen, click Try Sales Tax or Continue (the button varies depending on your current situation).
4. When asked how you want to enter your sales tax, choose EasyGuide.
5. Answer the questions about where you lived, the dates, and your sales tax rate.
   • If you only see the Places You Lived screen, choose Edit to access those questions.
6. When you get to the Major Purchases screen, answer Yes and follow the onscreen instructions to enter the sales taxes you paid on your vehicle purchase. 

• How do you define "major purchase" or "major item" for the sales tax deduction?
• Which deduction should I choose: sales tax or income tax?
