Yes, you can use the standard
deduction on your Federal return but itemize on your Oregon state return.
There is nothing in the Federal tax laws that say you must use the
same deductions on your Federal and state returns. It is governed by each
state instead.
Be sure to enter all of
your deductions as you go through the Federal section of your return in order
to maximize your state deductions when the information transfers to your state
return.
