Question

Can I itemize/deduct mortgage interest of 10,533 and capped state taxes of 10,000 for an overall deduction of 20,533, instead of taking the 12,000 standard deduction?

Yes, the itemized deductions will be more than the standard deduction ($12,000 if you are single) and TurboTax will use the itemized deductions to get you a larger tax break.
