To edit your property tax amounts:

  • Open your tax return and click the Federal Taxes tab.
  • Go to Deductions & Credits.
  • Under Your Home, scroll to Property Taxes, and click the Update button.
  • On the next screen, click Yes.
  • On the Enter the property taxes you paid in 2018 screen, edit the amount of your property tax.

For tax years 2018 through 2025, all state and local taxes, including property taxes, are capped at $10,000 ($5,000 if married filing separately).
