You should always enter the number that is correct and have backup information to confirm you posting. 

 

With that said.  Your bank may have paid taxes for the end of last year, or the beginning of the following year.  The taxes are deductible in the year that they are paid provided they were billed.

 

Be cautious, and be sure that the amount paid is accurate.  You can contact your town hall or bank and confirm the amount paid in that tax year.
