<p>since my family is low income, any federal taxes we pay gets returned to us. do i put 0 for taxes paid in css?</p>
<p>yes, if you mean any federal taxes withheld during the year are refunded to your parents after they file their return.</p>
<p>also, the css says to report itemized deductions from schedule a on line 29, but i don’t have schedule A. BUT, on my 1040, it lists a number for itemized deductions (line 40), do you know what i should do? </p>
<p>What is the amount?</p>
<p>around 12k. The line says "itemized deductions (from schedule A) or your standard deduction</p>
<p>Line 40 is itemized deductions or standard deduction. If schedule A wasn’t used to itemize deductions, than the amount on line 40 is the standard deduction, which in 2013 for married filers was $12,200.</p>
<p>thank you very much, i dont think css ever asks for standard deductions so i dont have to put it down under itemized right</p>
