Why did my federal itemized deductions reduced from last year? what did I input wrong? they are the same this year.

Unfortunately, there are several new limits to federal itemized deductions this year.

First, and the one impacting the most taxpayers, is the cap of $10,000 on all state/local/property taxes paid.

The job related expenses for W-2 earners has also been eliminated.

There are no more deductions for tax prep, legal fees or investment expenses either.
