Where do you enter purchase of a burial plot

i bought a burial plot this year - can i deduct the cost and where

[TomK · Accepted solution]

Unfortunately, the purchase of a cemetery plot is a personal expense and is not tax deductible.

Are the taxes paid on said cemetery plot deductible as a big-ticket item?

No, the sales taxes paid for the cemetery plot is not one of the major purchases eligible to be added to the general sales tax deduction.

Thank you for the answer.  Where could I have found that myself?
