Question

Why fill-in data for real property taxes, donations to charity, car registration frees, and medical expenses when the standard deduction way exceeds these deductions?

Turbotax  Premier should already have an option to skip the "answering all the deductions" section if taking the standard deduction is the better option.

....because, a number of states allow itemized deductions for some, or all of those entries ......even if Std Ded ends up being used in the Federal section.....and the Federal section is where they must be entered.
