Yes, if you claimed the Standard Deduction on your federal return, you can still itemize your deductions on the Arkansas return.
You may need to make manual adjustments to the amounts claimed on the federal return. Make sure that your total itemized deductions exceed the standard deduction.

- Single: $2,270
- Married Filing Joint: $4,540
- Head of Household: $2,270
- Married Filing Separately on Same Return: $2,270 each
- Married Filing Separately on Different Returns: $2,270
- Surviving Spouse: $2,270
If you file a married filing separate return, both spouses must claim the same deduction (standard or itemized).
