Vehicle credit?

You can still enter vehicle registration fees as a deduction in the itemized deduction. 

 

In TurboTax Online:

  • Go to Your Tax Breaks
  • Scroll down to Cars and other Things You Own
  • Click Show More
  • Choose Start for Car Registration Fees.

Thanks, I did standard deduction last year and this year but Turbotax had it as a deduction last year not this year so was wondering why?

Vehicle credit?

The program was showing things that could be deductions last year. It wasn't actually listed on your return as a deduction unless you use the vehicle for business purposes.

You can look at last year's actual return and see that without Sch A, there is no place to list the vehicle registration fees without a business.

I see it last year schedule A, not this year so curious.

You would not have a Schedule A if you used the standard deduction in 2021.

 

You can double-check by looking at line 12a of your 2021 Form 1040.
