Deductions & credits

In addition to following the suggestions posted by @DoninGA and @xmasbaby0, see this TurboTax help article for ways to find out how much property tax you paid.

 

Keep in mind:

 

  • If you pay your property tax with your mortgage, you can only deduct it after your lender has paid the tax on your behalf. You can contact your lender to find out when they typically make these payments. (For example, a lender might make the payment in October to cover the total amount of the following year’s taxes, or they might make quarterly payments. It depends on the taxing authority in your location).
  • Claim the deduction in the year you made the payment. If you paid your 2024 property tax on December 14, 2023, claim it on your 2023 return.
