Yes, as DoninGA mentioned above, your itemized deductions for your federal tax return will include state and local income and sales taxes paid. There's a cap on the SALT deduction (state and local taxes) which may limit the amount you can deduct.
According to the South Carolina Department of Revenue the following commonly claimed federal itemized deductions cannot be claimed in South Carolina and must be added back to South Carolina taxable income: state and local taxes, out-of-state losses, and expenses related to reserve income and interest income.
Note: South Carolina's tax calculation begins with your Federal Taxable Income, which is calculated after itemized deductions are taken into account. So there is no selection for itemized or standard deduction on your state tax return.
TurboTax will make any necessary adjustments. Your federal information will flow to your state tax return.
