Has anyone been able to write off their losses from the flood on their inclome tax return. My accountant filed an extension for me so he could figure all that out and...
Kevin B. replied:
You absolutely can and should deduct your flood losses on your tax return. Just Google "casualty and theft losses" and you will get all the information you need. Here is the first article that comes up: http://www.irs.gov/taxtopics/tc515.html. This is a no brainer. Your accountant is a Moron. Fire him today and get one of the PC tax programs (I like one called TaxCut) and do it yourself!
Kevin B. replied:
Yes, the casualty and theft loss write-off is for things not covered by insurance. As I tried to explain before, the biggest thing that is not covered by insurance and that can be written off as a casualty loss on your federal income tax is the decrease in fair market value of your home after a disaster like Irene. Lets take a typical home in the Village that might have been worth $350,000 before Irene. Now that home has been totally restored and it is only worth $250,000. Your casualty deduction for the loss in fair market value is $100K. This has nothing to do with the cost of repairs or the amount of insurance money you received. If you received less from the insurance company than your actual costs, this amount can be deducted as well, but the most significant part of the casualty deduction for most insured property loses is the decrease in fair market value. Here is some more information on this topic from the IRS including a real example about three quarters of the way down the page showing how the deduction is used on a home that lost $47K in fair market value after a disaster: http://www.irs.gov/publications/p547/ar02.html#en_US_2011_publink1000225415
