Last year I was able to deduct the Virginia personal property tax for my cars minus the registration fee. I do not see that his year.

I only see a deduction for the registration fee, which Virginia does not allow.

You can deduct taxes you paid on the value of personal property. To deduct your personal property tax:

• You have to itemize your deductions to deduct personal property taxes.
• You can only deduct personal property taxes you paid on property that you own.
• You cannot deduct penalties or late payment fees that appeared on your tax bill.

To enter the property tax into TurboTax:

1. Go to Federal Taxes, then Deductions & Credits 
2. Find Cars and Other Things You Own - Start Personal Property Taxes
3. TurboTax asks: 'Did you pay a personal property tax bill?' Answer yes
