I ma a new homeowner on my mortgage statement I do not see my property taxes.
If you closed on the purchase of your home in 2020, then chances are property taxes due in 2020 were paid before the closing date of your mortgage. If so, then the amount of property taxes paid by you at the closing will be on your closing documents.
Typically in the year ownership of real estate property changes, if the property taxes were paid before the closing, then the buyer reimburses the seller a percentage of those property taxes based on the closing date of the sale and the period of time those property taxes paid, actually cover. The amount will be shown in your closing documentation somewhere.
Also, you can access your county property appraiser's website to see the property taxes paid on that property in 2020. Just keep in mind that most likely the total amount paid as shown on the property appraiser's website may be more than what *you* actually paid in 2020. You can only claim the amount you actually paid in 2020. So be aware of that, and careful you don't claim more than you can prove you paid.
