Question

Deductions And Credits Summary Page

I have a question. On the Deductions And Credits page it compares last year to this year. Last year it shows an amount for Vehicle Registration Fees. This year I entered the amount in the correct place for Vehicle Registration Fees, but under 2022 it shows $0.00. I don't understand why this is happening.

Can you clarify if you entered all your itemized deductions?  It is possible if TurboTax has the standard deduction because it gives you a better tax break, it may not appear until you reach the amount for itemizing.

Mary,

 

To add to my reply, for the comparison 2021 shows the Standard Deduction, a line for Student Loan Interest, a line for Motor Vehicle Registration Fees, and a line for State and Local Taxes > $10,000 and  then has the total of the lines. The total equals the Standard Deduction + the Student Loan Interest + the Motor Vehicle Registration Fees. (The State and Local Taxes > entry is 0. But under the 2022 column even though there was an amount entered under the Motor Vehicle Registration Fees when going through the entry process, it shows $0!!!

I believe it went with the Standard Deduction (It has 28,7000). For 2021 it has 27,050.00 as the Standard Deduction. I am fairly certain that last year I took the standard deduction as well though.

Yes 28,700 is the Standard Deduction for Joint with both spouses over 65.

I had the exact same question. But I got my call disconnected by TurboTax 3 times asking.

That isn't good. I know that it won't make a huge difference in what I owe, but I should get the deduction, as the program help file still lists my state as being able to do that, and I lived in the same state in 2021

I would like to take a deeper look at this. However, I need a diagnostic file which is a copy of your tax return that has all of your personal information removed. You can send one to us by following the directions below:

  1. Sign into your online account.
  2. Locate the Tax Tools on the left-hand side of the screen.
  3. A drop-down will appear. Select Tools
  4. On the pop-up screen, click on “Share my file with agent.”
  5. This will generate a message that a diagnostic file gets sanitized and transmitted to us.
  6. Please respond back with the Token Number that was generated.
