After you file

You're not seeing a deduction for your theft loss because the deduction for personal casualty or theft losses has been repealed in tax years 2018–2025, unless the loss occurred in a federally-declared disaster area.

 

Previously, uninsured losses exceeding $100 due to fire, theft, or natural disaster could be deducted if the total loss amount exceeded 10% of the AGI, regardless of location.

 

For additional information, see What if I have property that was lost or damaged (a casualty loss)?

 

See also IRS Topic 515 - Casualty, Disaster and Theft Losses (Including Federally Declared Disaster Areas) for additional information.
