In an earlier post I established that My participation In Medicare Plan D would result in a claim 0f $1,431. This is the projected claim I would be awarded in 2006 if I joined and purchased our usual drug supply.
Trust me, I will Not be Joining Plan D... Plan D will not have to pay this amount to me. Medicare can keep this money.
Should this be a Charitable Deduction or a Tax Credit?
Because I have contributed this amount to the Plan D program, I plan to enter this amount on IRS Form 1040 line 50 Tax Credit
"50 Retirement Savings contributions credit. Attach form 8880 50 __$1431_ "
It seem only fair to do it as a Tax credit.
Most of us seniors don't get much mileage with Itemized Deductions.
