Unlike the standard deduction, itemized deductions result in different taxable income amounts from person to person. Those who qualify for the standard deduction have the leeway to choose the itemized route; however, individuals who are not eligible for the standard deduction can only itemize their tax deductions.
Although most taxpayers claim the standard deduction, all taxpayers may choose to itemize deductions and claim that amount if it is larger than their allowable standard deduction amount. You must file Form 1040 and Schedule A to itemize. Some itemized deductions are limited based on a taxpayerâs adjusted gross income, or AGI.
