Virginia Charitable Mileage Deduction

[Kurt Merkling]

I will file my Form 1040 using the standard Deduction. My taxes include charitable mileage, however, I know I cannot deduct the mileage on my federal return because I am not itemizing deductions using Schedule A. Can I claim my/this charitable mileage (deduction) on my VA Form 760 even though I did not itemize deductions on my federal return?

No, for Virginia If you claimed the standard deduction on your federal income tax return, you must also claim the standard deduction on your Virginia return.
