deducting vacant land property taxes in California

[dnpdillon]

I have read that vacant land property taxes are deductible and are not part of the 10,000 max limit.  Where do I enter this on Turbo tax?  I have paid property taxes on vacant land and would like to write them off.  I have heard that they are to be entered on Schedule A line 6 as "other taxes."  I cannot find how to get to this.  Please help.

Property taxes are deducted on Schedule A line 5b regardless of whether they are paid for a home or vacant land.  They are subject to the $10,000 state and local taxes limit.  

See the following information from the IRS Instructions for Schedule A line 5b.

Here are instructions for entering the property tax information in TurboTax:

Where do I enter my real estate (property) taxes in TurboTax Online?

I am allowed to deduct property taxes on vacant land as a personal itemized deduction on Schedule A.  These taxes should be reported as "Other taxes" on line 6 of Schedule A.  This deduction is not subject to the $10,000 annual limit of the TCJA.  I want to enter this on line 6 and have no access to this part of my form to make the manual entry.  This used to be available on Turbo tax (to be able to edit right on the form).  What happened?

Thank you.

Schedule A line 6 is not accessible directly unless you are using a desktop version of TurboTax and edit the form itself.  Taxes reported on K-1s and certain foreign taxes are reported on line 6.  

Property taxes paid on vacant land are reported on line 5b.  

If Schedule A line 6 was directly available to users in the past through TurboTax, then the program was changed to meet current IRS instructions for Schedule A.
