South Carolina SALT deduction optimizer
See how the federal SALT cap affects South Carolina taxes paid.
How this optimizer works
Step 1 sums your state income tax, property tax, and sales tax to estimate total SALT.
Step 2 applies the federal $10,000 SALT cap to show how much is deductible if you itemize. Optional marginal rate input converts this into a tax savings estimate.
