If you take the deduction on Schedule A and there is an overpayment of State income tax it will taxable the following year

But how about if there is no SALT deduction the following year, so there might not even be a place to include it...

You would receive a 1099-G from the state and it is included in income on line 10 of the 1040

How is there a overpayment of state tax, that will be traceable the next year?
Isn't it true that someone might me able to prepay state tax and get a deduction this year, since they pay it this year in 2017?

The state that received the overpayment will issue you a 1099-G stating the overpayment and the IRS gets a copy as well.

Yes, you can prepay and get a deduction for 2017 however you will be taxed on the overpayment in 2018 (if you itemized in 2017)

Why will they tax you for an overpayment?
You are paying them, not them paying you.
(Don't take a refund, just defer it to the next year.  No? )

Because you got a deduction on a tax payment to the state which you received back. Otherwise you can pay 50k to the State receive back 40k as a refund and deduct the full 50k on your Schedule A. Overpayment is whether you receive it or roll it forward - same difference

You don't think they will backdate this to 1/1/17?
No way they will do that.
As it is the senate had to push off the corporate reduction till 2019, because it raises the deficit too much. So they wont start this bill before 2018.

Is the Senate bill bad for lets say someone with a 18, 20 and 22 year old at home, who they still are feeding and clothing?
They dont get to take a penny of the $2,000 child tax credit, yet they lost the $4,050 exemption for each of them. Is there something in the bill that addresses these older children dependents?

No way to make a 2018 estimated payment instead of 2017?

CPAs and lawyers. It keeps them employed.
I've been waiting over 5 years with bated breath for someone to say that!

At least you get $500, even though it doesn't make up for the $4000 exemption loss.

"Meanwhile, filers with dependents who are not qualified children may be able to claim a new $500 nonrefundable credit per dependent. Under the House bill, there would be a new $300 per person credit for parents and dependents over 17."

Due to which provision? The higher CTC and possible elimination of AMT are windfalls for many in the frum community.

But CTC doesn't offset the loss of personal exemption, does it?

I'm concerned about SALT deduction (including property tax) and student loan interest.

That would depend on how many children and tax bracket.

A family making $80k with 2 kids. 12k in property taxes, and another 12k in mortgage interest. Where do they end up? It seems to me more or less the same?

ETA: Is the property tax deduction also removed under the new tax bill? Or only the local/state income tax deduction?
