Turbotax needs an update for treatment of property taxes

Greetings!

 

Posting here as I did not find a place to send feedback to Turbotax/Intuit (having already filed my 2025 return).

Turbotax, under federal deductions, personal property taxes, in the "learn more" pop-up, directs not to include property tax.  This is incorrect for 2025 tax year and needs an update.  Proved costly for me, I will have to file an amended return was my 2025 has been accepted and processed by IRS and my state.  Hope Intuit updates turbotax.  In the meantime, you can ignore this and include and input your property taxes, and other itemized deductions, to ensure you file with the deductions appropriate in your situation (standard or itemized).

The deduction for personal property taxes in TurboTax is in the Deductions and Credits section, then Cars and other things you own, then Personal Property Taxes. There is a "learn more" pop-up as you mention that says you can deduct personal property taxes if they are assessed annually are based on the value of the property. I believe it is in the section for Cars and other things as the tax is normally only applicable to vehicles.

Hi Thomas!  please review IRS publication 17, for 2025 tax year, from page 97.  Turbotax does need an update here.

You can use the first day of the month he received his very first payment.

 

The IRS should also accept the first day of the month he retired as a perfectly "good faith" estimate.

 

This date tells the software how many "expected payments" he has left... which then determines how much of his pension is tax-free (because he made after-tax contributions to the plan years ago).
