Are damages not reimbursed by moving company deductible? Tax Year 2021
I searched the TT Community and found contradicting responses to this question. So I'd like to be sure before I entering it into TT.
We moved in 2021 from Texas to California. We had a terrible moving experience to say the least. After a lot of back and forth, calls, emails, etc. they partially reimbursed us for some of the damages.
Q1. I can deduct such losses?
Q2. Is my understanding correct that I would need to itemize to get this deduction?
Q3. Can I simply claim the difference between the total claimed amount and what was covered by the moving company as my loss? I hope I don't have to list each individual damaged item because there are many!
Q4. Is the highlighted line where I enter this into TT? What data do I need for this claim?
Thank you!
