Tax Deduction Uniforms
Question: my sister is freaking over the alt tax minimum deal. what makes you have to pay?
they usually claim itemized not standard deductions like cells for work, uniforms, tuition exp, home improv’s, int on mortgage and student loans. does this make them have to pay the xtra alt tax min?
Answer: Congress extended the ‘patch’ for another year, so if their income and deductions stayed about the same last year as the year before, the only effect it will have this year is that it takes the IRS 7 weeks to reprogram their computers from whenever Congress quits meddling with the tax code. Therefore people with deductions for day care and tuitions won’t be able to claim those until after Feb 11th. The choices are:
1) File now leaving those off and then file an amended return after Feb 11th to include those child care and tuitions deductions.
2) Wait until after Feb 11th to file.
Those are the only choices this year. That, and write her Congressman and Senator…they are the ones who caused this mess.
