How do I change from the standard deduction to itemized (or vice-versa)?
by TurboTax• Updated 4 days ago
When you get to the Deductions & Credits section of your tax return, we'll ask you questions to determine the deduction that gives you the best outcome on your federal taxes. For most people, this is the standard deduction.
You can always switch to a different deduction. However, if you and your spouse are filing separate federal returns, both of you must take the same deduction per IRS rules. Only TurboTax Deluxe and above can handle itemized deductions.
