Can You Write Off Florida state income tax?
Short answer: Florida has no personal income tax; homeowners get a homestead exemption, and itemizers can deduct sales tax instead of income tax federally.
No state income tax means nothing to deduct for state income tax on your federal return, but sales and property taxes can still count toward the SALT deduction if you itemize.
Records to keep: Keep receipts, statements (1098, 1098-T, 1099, W-2G), and a note of what each cost was for. Compare itemizing to the 2026 standard deduction before you claim.
