Get your taxes done using TurboTax

There are two places you can enter property tax paid on your home. The first one is on the 1098-INT screen. If you have entered your property tax there, it is the only place you can edit it. The second is in the property taxes section. 


Check here first:

 

  1. Select Federal from the left side menu.
  2. Select Deductions and Credits.
  3. Expand the list and scroll down to Mortgage Interest and Refinancing (Form 1098)
  4. Click Edit/Add to the right.
  5. Click Edit to the right of your 1098 entry.
  6. Click Continue until you get to the page that says, Let's get the details from your 1098, at the top. 
  7. Below box 5 you will see a box for Property (real estate) taxes.
    You can edit this amount here. 
     

If this box is blank, you need to go right to the Property tax section:

 

  1. Select Federal from the left side menu.
  2. Select Deductions and Credits. 
  3. Expand the list and scroll down to Property (Real Estate) Taxes.
  4. Click Edit to the right. 
  5. You can edit the number here only if the this the first place you entered it.
