Question

The program shows no state and local tax deduction probably because my 1099-Rs are not showing any withheld taxes and wants me to take the sales tax deduction

    Any payments made in 2024 towards state and local taxes count. 

    • If you made estimated payments, you can enter them under deductions. Where do I enter my estimated tax payments?
    • If you paid tax due to your city or state, enter it on the line below estimates, under Other Income Taxes.
    • You can calculate the sales tax deduction. The program will find the best outcome.
