Under 2023 Federal Taxes and Credits, the line that says, "Property Taxes" is double my tax amount. When I click on the amiunt underlined in blue:

Real estate tax paid on principal residence: $6000

Real estate tax repoeted on Form 1098: $6000

Less real estate tax deducted for home office on Schedule C: -$10.

When I click on "update" in gray, it takes me to a screen saying that "We've got all your property tax info" Looks like your standard deduction is better.

I can't figure out where that second property tax of $6000 is coming from. I must have entered it twice someplace.

Help as txes due in a week!

Did you get a 1098 for Mortgage interest? It would have been on that. Delete either the 1098 tax entry or delete the separate property tax entry here,

Find Property Tax under
Federal Taxes (or Personal for H&B)
Deductions and Credits

Thanks, I went to the Forms view and thge amount was listed twice on Schedule A, Line 2a and 2b. 2b pulled from the 1098 information, so I changed Line 2a to $0.00.

That seemed to have fixed the problem!
