I purchased a vehicle and wanted to know where to input the sales tax.

I keep reading on where to input the sales tax, however I do not have the option on my screen. I live in Texas, does this matter?

If you are preparing an itemized tax return, you can enter the sales tax you paid for the car you purchased in 2016. To that section of your return, you can follow the steps listed below.

How to enter:

Select the Federal Taxes tab
Select Deductions and Credits
Select Cars and other things you own. You may be eligible to deduct certain taxes associated with your car.
Then go through the sales tax interview under Estimates and Other Taxes Paid and enter the sales tax you paid on the automobile
