if I am married but filling separately and own a joint property with my spouse, how do I enter my real estate taxes

You typically must limit itemized deductions such as mortgage interest and property taxes to what you paid as individuals,  So you may split it 50/50, 60/40, etc., depending on what you each actually paid.

 

You have to agree on both taking the Standard Deduction or itemizing—if one itemizes, you both must itemize.

 

Enter Property/Real Estate Taxes:

  1. Open your return (if not already open)
  2. Enter "property taxes" in the Search box.
  3. Click on "jump to property taxes" link.
  4. Enter your information.
