It wont let me add deductions for motor vehicle sales tax under federal and deductions.

I have finished going through my federal taxes, but when I want to go back and deduct a major purchase it wont let me. How do I add it after I have gone through everything?

It wont let me add deductions for motor vehicle sales tax under federal and deductions.

What happens when you try?

The deduction for sales tax is under the deductions and credits tab. Go to:

  • Deductions and Credits
  • Estimates and Other Taxes Paid
  • Sales Tax.
  • Click Update next to Sales Tax.
  • Click Continue.
  • Select Easy Guide
  • Click Edit next to your sales tax rate.
  • Click Continue twice and you will then be on the page where you enter your car or other major purchases.

If that doesn't work, type sales tax in the search box.
