Deductions & credits

A roof replacement for a personal residence, not used as a rental or in a business, is not reported on a tax return.  The cost of the improvement is added to the basis of the home when it is sold.

Sales tax paid on items such as furniture and appliances are not entered on a tax return.  Unless you are totaling all of your sales tax receipts for the year, instead of using the TurboTax sales tax tables from the IRS to estimate your sales tax deduction based upon your income.
