Question

How do I switch to itemized deduction in Turbotax 2025(MacBook Version)

Hello,

I am entering my deductions into TT 2025(MacBook Version). Even if my deductions are above the $31k limits ( $40k), turbotax continues to pick standard deductions. I dont seem to find a way to toggle that, both in "EasySteps" or in "Forms". Can someone educate me how to do it?

 

Thanks in advance

     Go through your itemized deductions again. After navigating, you should reach a page that says.

    “Based on what you told us, the Standard Deduction is right for you.” or “Based on what you told us, Itemizing is right for you.”

    On this page, you will see a link or button labeled. “Change my deduction.” This is the only place where TurboTax lets you override the automatic choice. Select it.
