Can I deduct the taxes I pay on my vehicles each year in Connecticut?

[PaulC1 · Accepted solution]

You can get a credit for property taxes paid on a vehicle if you qualify (two vehicles if your Filing Status is Married Filing Joint or Qualifying Widow(er)). To qualify, you must have been a full-year resident of Connecticut for 2018. Also, you, or your spouse if married filing jointly, must be 65 years of age or older by the end of the taxable year, or you must have claimed at least one dependent on your federal income tax return. Finally, there are income thresholds; you may only qualify for a partial credit, or none at all, if your Adjusted Gross Income is above a certain amount.
