There have been a lot of new tax law changes this year due to the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act (TCJA) that was signed into law in December of 2017.

One change that I think will affect you has to do with the new SALT limitation.  Beginning in 2018, the combination of State, Local, Property, and Sales Tax (SALT) deducted on your Schedule A is now limited to $10,000.

For more information on this new limitation as well as other changes that may have an effect on your return, check out this TurboTax FAQ: How Will New Tax Legislation Affect My 2018 Tax Return?
