State tax filing

Like all good Okies I of course tithe at church so the $17k limit on mortgage interest and property taxes are not concerning, and I made the adjustments to the totals already in the original question.

 

I think with the OBBBA changes to charitable deductions effectively increasing the standard deduction by $2k (which I think will carry over to the state taxes via an AGI reduction), it makes the savings I was looking at a lot less than otherwise. 

 

Absent the OBBBA changes, you might recommend someone in Oklahoma with the below commit the cardinal sin of itemizing less than the federal standard deduction!

Charitable 13,000
Home Interest 7,000
Property Taxes 8,000
State Withholding 2,000
