This bill would let more taxpayers deduct unreimbursed personal casualty losses on their federal taxes. It removes the recent rule that generally allowed these deductions only if the loss was tied to a federally declared disaster. In short, it repeals the limit on these deductions so people can claim qualified losses even when there’s no federal disaster declaration.
Key points:
Referred to the House Committee on Ways and Means.
