Deductions & credits

The Seattle Transportation Benefit District fee is deductible on the federal tax return.

The motor-vehicle excise tax you paid for transit projects may be itemized, and deducted from taxable income, when filing Form 1040. List the amounts on Schedule A, line 7, “Personal property taxes.”

Seattle monorail tax: The defunct Seattle Monorail Project’s car-tab tax of 1.4 percent, within Seattle city limits only, is deductible. The amount is shown as “Monorail” on the green vehicle-registration statement that comes with your license tabs.

Personal Property Tax is entered by using the steps below in TurboTax (online or desktop version):

  1. Sign into your account.
  2. In the upper right search for personal property taxes
  3. Jump to personal property taxes
  4. Continue to enter your personal property taxes.

The fee should be based on the value of the vehicle.  For more information please use this link: What Are Personal Property Taxes?
