Deductions & credits
No. Unfortunately, Georgia is one of those state where you're not allowed to claim car registration fees or personal property tax on the vehicle.
However, since it's a new car purchase, it's possible you can add the sales tax as part of the sales tax deduction. This may prove to be more advantageous than the reg fees.
Sales tax paid can be included in the calculation of itemized deductions. You can include state sales tax paid or you can include state income tax, you cannot take both.
Since you had a major purchase you should see if the sales tax deduction is greater than the state income tax deduction.
To enter sales tax in TurboTax:
