    Hello,

    The Becker 2015 page R2-21 said:

    Real Estate tax, Income tax, Personal property tax and sale tax are deductible. But business and rental property taxes are not deductible.

    What is the business and rental property taxes? I checked the schedule E, line 16 is “tax”, it doesn’t mention any nondeductible tax in this schedule.

    Thank you for your time and advise in advance!

    It's a little confusing out of context – make sure to watch the lecture.

    This section is Covering Schedule A for itemized deductions.

    It is mentioned that these are NONDEDUCTIBLE for Schedule A purposes BUT Business taxes would be deducted on Schedule C and Rental Property Taxes deducted on Schedule E.

    The word usage and location is a little confusing…they are deductible…just NOT on Schedule A and the parentheses indicate where you should deduct.
