TT Premier - "Other Itemized Deductions" not making it to Schedule A using the online version. Do I need to use downloaded program ?

Probably not...depends on what you are entering

Most of the deductions in the "Other" category were eliminated for Federal 2018 tax deductions. 

They only remain in the Federal interview so that they can be used in certain state tax forms that might still allow them as state income deductions, or if the Congress decides to re-instate any of them later.

I have confirmed that this, but why does Turbotax still have a place to enter it...

Don't rush now.......  😉

Thank you so much.  I can't believe that I missed this.  Will have to change my investment philosophy.  Thanks again...
