Yes, your state and local income tax refunds are not taxable if any of the following apply:
- You took the standard deduction in the prior year (you did not itemize your deductions).
- You had negative taxable income (your deductions exceeded your adjusted gross income).
- You itemized deductions, and elected to deduct state and local general sales tax instead of state and local income taxes.
