Expenses for tuition, registration fees, and other required fees are qualifying expenses for the Tuition and Fees Tax Deduction. Do not include the cost of books, supplies, software, room and board, or other miscellaneous expenses for schooling. Qualifying expenses are reported to you and to the IRS using Form 1098-T. Limits The maximum amount of tuition and fees deduction you can claim is $4,000 per year. If your income is over $65,000 but under $80,000 (unmarried), then the maximum amount you can deduct is $2,000.
Deducting Medical Expenses Doctor visits, prescriptions, and other medical expenses can quickly pile up, even after your insurance pays its share. Luckily, thereâs a built-in tax break to help pay for these expenses, at least if the math works in your favor. This is the medical expense deduction, and it lets you recoup some of the cost of qualifying expenses on your tax return. First, note that to deduct a medical expense, it has to be an unreimbursed expense. That means if you pay for an expense out-of-pocket but get reimbursed by your insurance company or anyone else, you canât claim that expense as paid by you. You may be able to deduct expenses like medical supplies, dental treatments, and insurance premiums.
