2020 – 2021 Schedule A | Itemized Deductions
Fill out 2020 – 2021 Schedule A – Itemized Deductions to itemize your deductions. Claiming the itemized deductions mean you opted out of the standard deduction. There are only a handful of itemized deductions that can be claimed on the federal income tax return. If the total amount of itemized deductions don’t exceed the standard deduction you’re allowed for your filing status, take the standard deduction instead.
