Use of the term Anglo-Saxon begins with Walter Scott, as an adjective meant to differentiate the common people of England from the haughty and oppressive Norman-French aristocracy (the so-called Norman yoke).
Pretax Payroll Deductions. Pretax payroll deductions are qualified deductions that lower your employees' taxable wages. You subtract their contributions from their gross wages before figuring their tax withholding. Some pretax deductions reduce taxable wages for income tax; others reduce taxable wages for Social Security and Medicare taxes.
However, the money you paid out of your own pocket for your premiums might be tax deductible. You canât take a deduction for health insurance you paid for with pre-tax money. If you have insurance through your employer, the premiums you pay are usually taken out of your paycheck before your income taxes are calculated. Since these premiums are paid with pre-tax dollars, theyâre already income-tax-free, meaning you canât claim them as a tax deduction.
