Frequently asked questions
Should I itemize or take the standard deduction?
Itemize only if the total on Schedule A exceeds your standard deduction — otherwise the standard deduction saves more tax with less paperwork.
Is the SALT deduction capped?
State and local tax deductions are capped — check the current limit in the Schedule A instructions for the tax year you are filing.
