Deductions & credits

No, it hasn't changed.  It sounds like you may have been able to itemize your deductions last year, but this year your standard deduction is higher.

 

What is my standard deduction

 

Essentially, TurboTax selects the deduction that yields the highest tax benefit for you situation.

 

Auto registration fees are used to compute your total itemized deductions. Itemized deductions include items such as mortgage interest, taxes, and charitable contributions.

 

If the standard deduction is higher, your auto registration fees would not be deductible and therefore would not be reflected on your tax return.

 

Please see the attached link for additional information on the difference between the standard deduction and itemized deductions.
