Tax deductions for Snowbirds

Varies

Can You Write Off Tax deductions for Snowbirds?

Short answer: Mortgage interest on a second home counts under the $750,000 cap, and property taxes in both states share one SALT cap; your domicile decides which state taxes your income.

Track days in each state if you're claiming a no-tax state.

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.
