MsTabbyKats Posted March 10, 2014 Report Posted March 10, 2014 One of my PhD (in law) foreign scholars just gave me the cost of her breastfeeding supplies for a new deduction she heard about. Anyone else hear about this? Quote
JRS Posted March 10, 2014 Report Posted March 10, 2014 From Pub 502: Breast Pumps and Supplies You can include in medical expenses the cost of breast pumps and supplies that assist lactation. Quote
MsTabbyKats Posted March 10, 2014 Author Report Posted March 10, 2014 No...that's not what she meant. She meant there was a brand new separate deduction..for those who choose to breastfeed....similar to a moving expense or educational credit. I had to burst her bubble! Quote
JohnH Posted March 10, 2014 Report Posted March 10, 2014 I can see where this thread is headed - now it's going to get milked for all it's worth. 1 Quote
RitaB Posted March 10, 2014 Report Posted March 10, 2014 If mammary serves, people think there is a tax credit for everything they want to deduct. Seriously though, I hate this type of thing, it's so hard to prove a negative. 2 Quote

TAXMAN Posted March 11, 2014 Report Posted March 11, 2014 I had a few that beats the dd. I also had one client in the "entertainment field" and found out she could write this stuff off. How did she know? 1 Quote
