Yes, it could be.
A taxpayer has the option of claiming the "standard deduction" or "itemizing deductions" on Schedule A.
If you itemize, you can claim "taxes paid" which would be State income tax withheld, or State Sales tax.
You should enter the sales tax information on large purchases, such as your car.
The TurboTax program will take this into account when recommending the best deduction for your situation.
