Deductions & credits
I have an additional question in regard to property taxes. I noted that my rental property taxes are listed on both Schedule E expenses, Line 16, and on Schedule A, Line 5b. I only entered property taxes for the rental when I completed the expense entries for Schedule E. I am wondering if this is occurring because I had both rental (83%) and personal use (17%), which of course was deducted from all of my expenses. As an example, $10,000 was the actual property tax expense paid in 2024, but $8500 is listed as an expense on Schedule E line 16, due to the personal vs renter use. There is also $1500 listed on Schedule A, Line 5b. When I went in to try to determine why this amount is showing on Schedule A line 5b, TurboTax stated, "Don't enter personal taxes from your rental, the $1,500.00 is already taken care of." I just want to be sure that I have a clear understanding of why there is an additional entry on Schedule A line 5b related to property/personal taxes.
