Did you know that the IRS allows you to deduct the State Income Tax or Sales Tax you have paid from your Federal Taxes? (You can’t claim both)
You can use the government’s calculator which estimates the sales tax you paid based on your income or if you want to maximize your deduction you must save your receipts showing the actual sales tax that you paid. That’s where Sales Tax Tracker helps you save money!
"If you file a Form 1040 and itemize decisions on Schedule A, you have the option of claiming either sales or local income taxes you paid or state and local sales taxes you paid (you can't claim both). If you saved your receipts throughout the year, you can add up the total amount of sales taxes you actually paid and claim that amount."
