Good News for some

If anyone purchased a new car between 2/16 to 12/31/09 you can deduct the sales tax you paid to your state on your 09 Fed tax return. http://www.irs.gov/newsroom/article/...209624,00.html

Does it have to be a NEW car or just new to you? That link doesn't work

Ditto! My car sure as hell isn't new, but I bought it in October.

I don`t know why the link isn`t working: You can go the Legacy GT site, click on quick links, click new post, on 2nd page at the moment under thread Factory order late now no sales tax deduction, post 10 click on link.

The link doesn't work because for some reason, the "..." got put in instead of the full URL.

Then go to Legacy GT site. This is only for new cars so even if you didn`t buy new maybe you know someone who did.

Even if you didn`t pay the sales tax you can still deduct other fees, since my link doesn`t work go to post 4 and follow the directions for the Legacy GT site to click on link that does work and read for yourself.

You didn't pay sales tax? I know I can buy cars in VT, MA, ME, etc. and not pay sales tax because I'm a NH resident. Of course, I get screwed when I go to register my car every year.
