Deductions & credits

 

YES, If you paid out of pocket with after tax dollars, and you do not include them in Itemize Deductions, yes

If the premiums are listed on your W-2 as pre-tax dollars, no.

 

According to our expert @BMcCalpin

 

"Simply put, your health insurance premiums are normally listed on your W-2 in box 12 with a code of DD. This amount is removed from Wages - thus this amount has been included in determining federal adjusted gross income. And since federal income flows to Georgia, deducting these premiums in Georgia would be a case of double-dipping."

 

According to the state of Georgia:

"to the extent the deduction has not been included in federal adjusted income" AND "the expenses have not been provided from a health reimbursement arrangement and have not been included in itemized deductions"
