Deductions & credits

Property taxes on a personal residence can come from three places in TurboTax:

  1. Rental Properties and Royalties if you used your home as a part rental,
  2. Mortgage Interest, Refinancing, and Insurance, and
  3. Property taxes

If you used your home as a part rental and TurboTax is splitting your property tax between rental expense and Deductions & Credits, go to Real Estate Taxes in the rental section. 

 

If you entered for property taxes along with Form 1098 you can edit your Mortgage Lender to remove Property (real estate) taxes paid from that section. Type 1098 in Search. Click Jump to 1098.

 

If you entered Property Taxes directly, type property tax in Search. Click Jump to property tax and remove the amount from Enter the property taxes you paid in 2020.
