Georgia Ad-Valorem

Turbotax is not counting my Georgia ad-valorem tax.   

Georgia does have a separate TAVT tax which is not deductible, but for trailers and vehicles registered before the law, they are still charging a tax based on the value of the vehicle which should be deductible.   Please provide a solution, so I can take the deduction correctly.

    The  Georgia Annual Ad Valorem Tax applies to most vehicles purchased prior to March 1, 2013 and non-titled vehicles and qualifies as a Personal Property Tax.

     

    To enter your Personal Property Taxes take the following steps:

     

    1. Sign in to TurboTax Online, then click Deductions & Credits (Review or Edit)
    2. Under Cars and Other Things You Own- Show more and Start or Revisit Car Registration Fees.

    Thanks for the reply, and I had entered all my ad-valorem (i have a lot of older cars), but the deluxe / premier package was not moving that data into the deductions summary.  It also did not list Georgia on the list of states that allowed car registration fees as deductions.   No problem.  I have moved on.
