I got married last year.  I own a home and my husband and I own a second home together.  My home has a mortgage and I was able to enter the mortgage information (taxes, interest, etc) into Turbo Tax Premier (desktop version).  However, the home my husband and I own together does not have a mortgage.  Where can I enter the taxes we paid on this home in TurboTax Premier desktop version?  Is it possible to itemize the taxes on this home as well?

    You can enter the property tax on the second home---but do remember that you are subject to the cap of $10,000 for the deduction---no more than that even on the combination of the two homes.

    Do you know Where in Turbo Tax Premier I would enter it?  I cant figure out where to put it into the program.  Thanks for your help.

    Go to Federal> Deductions and Credits> Your Home to enter mortgage interest, property taxes, and loan origination fees (“points”) that you paid in 2023.  

     

     

    In other words----the same section that you used for the first home.
