georgia ad volrem tak

[thewanaseks]

i bought my cars in Wisconsin and paid Wisconsin sales tax on them.  I moved to Georgia and was forced to pay the ad volrem tax (thousands of dollars) on my cars to register them.  So I had to pay sales tax? to Georgia even though i did not buy them in Georgia and was not a resident of Georgia when I bought them. Is this ad volrem tax deductible in my case?

1. You paid sales tax to Wi. For GA, you moved the title and paid property tax. The new TAVT is a both a title and ad valorem tax and can be added to your itemized deductions. See Vehicle Taxes–Title Ad Valorem Tax (TAVT) 

2. Yes, if you itemize it is part of the State and Local Taxes paid which is capped at $10,000 currently.

Reference: How does the Standard Deduction differ from itemizing deductions?
