New York optionally allows the full federal itemized
deduction less NY state income taxes. But our standard
deduction is high enough ($14,600 MFJ) than many taxpayers
end up with an itemized federal return and a standard
deduction on their state return.

Michigan is an AGI state and therefore has no deductions per say.

In Connecticut, itemized expenses are not used for residents
or non-residents. A small credit for local property tax is
given to residents, but it is $350 or less.

I'm not sure what you mean by "relative". Iowa has a
progressive tax rate ranging from 0.36% to 8.98%; taxpayers
with AGI of less than $9,000 (single) or $13,500 (other
filing statuses) are exempt from tax.

California (essentially) allocates itemized deductions
according to the fraction of Californa-source income.
So the correct answer is "it doesn't matter whether
it's a California property or not". If it's a
rental property, then the answer would be "No".

Arizona recalculates the itemized deductions to be
only those which are incurred (or paid -- it wasn't
clear) when you are a resident or are related to
Arizona-source income.

However -- it's still deducted for "Federal taxable
income recalculated for Arizona purposes", but not
for "Arizona taxable income".

Yes. The only adjustment to Federal itemized deductions is
state/local income tax.

Not sure what you're looking for here. The rates are
progressive: 3.5% 6.25% and 6.45%.

If you are wandering around this group on the 14th, you're
my kinda tax preparer.

Taking a quick survey as it regards to pending bill in
Missouri Senate.

The question is:

Can a non-resident in your state take a deduction for
property taxes paid in another state?

I'd like your answer Yes/No:
Your state:
Relative Tax Rate by Percentage:

Thanks!

(explanation below if you are interested)

Missouri uses the federal total itemized deduction and then
adds back a couple of other items less state tax to come up
with a taxable income to tax at 6%. The only two major
cities in Missouri are Saint Louis and Kansas City. Both
are on borders and both draw in workers from Illinois and
Kansas respectively. The proposal is to make non-residents
only add back in their property tax and tax that at 6% too.
Me thinks this is a way of raising funds while only
irritating non-voting members of the tax base! Feel free to
offer your opinion.

Mike.
