Navigating the SALT Deduction: Key Changes and Tips

The State and Local Tax (SALT) deduction provides taxpayers the opportunity to deduct their state and local income taxes or their state and local sales taxes, alongside property taxes, on their federal tax returns when itemizing. This deduction has been an integral part of the tax code, primarily aimed at alleviating the impact of double taxation by both federal and state governments.

Recent changes in the tax landscape have prompted a review of the SALT deduction, particularly in light of recent tax reforms that affect deduction limits. Understanding these modifications is crucial for taxpayers looking to optimize their tax filings.
