Real Estate Tax Rebates

02-10-2008, 05:54 PM

Last year we talked about this and it was decidedly voted that any return of Real Estate taxes by local or state should not be netted on schedule A and put on line 21 as other income.

I do about 20 IRS employees and ALL of them are saying that they were told to be sure the rebate is put on Schedule A so that their real estate taxes are shown as a net figure.

Have anyone else heard of this posistion change??????

Real Estate Taxes

If the rebate or credit is for the cuurent year deduction I net them. If it is for deduction taken in a prior year, I include in income to the extent it was a tax benefit in a prior year.

See page 3-21 of TTB.
