Because the Johnsons live in Florida, where there is no state income tax, they will deduct the estimation of the general sales tax related to the area in which they live. The most efficient way is to use the Sales Tax Calculator on the IRS website at https://www.irs.gov/Individuals/Sales-Tax-Deduction-Calculator. A key point to remember in using the calculator is that "income" for this calculation also includes the nontaxable portion of social security benefits.
