Can Ohio school district tax estimated payments be a deduction and does Turbo Tax take these into consideration when determining my obligation?

[erk_60]

No questions were asked about whether I made estimated tax payments. Furthermore, there is no place to list the estimated Ohio school district tax payments I have already made for 2016.

School district income tax (SDIT) estimated payments are deductible on the fedearl return. Because they are deductible, they are entered in the federal section of Turbotax.

In TurboTax (TT), enter at:

Federal Taxes Tab (Personal for H&B version)

Deductions & Credits

“I’ll choose what I want to work on” button

-Scroll down to:

--Estimates & other taxes paid

   -Estimates

      On the next screen, click start next to Local estimated taxes for 2016. Two screens later "School district Tax, Ohio" will be one of the choices on the locality scroll down menu.

That entry will carry, automatically, to the school district return.
