Deductions & credits

There are two possible ways to enter the property tax.

You can enter them there, or there is a separate entry section for property taxes.

• Property Tax is often reported with the Mortgage Interest on form 1098.
• However, it is presented on the summary under a separate tab labeled Property Tax.
  • You cannot edit the amount you posted on the mortgage entry screen.
  • If you wish to edit this, go back to the Mortgage 1098 and make the changes.
