Deductions & credits
@dingding3022 Answer yes, since you are eligible to qualify for a natural disaster relief on your taxes, and the important thing is to transfer that information to your tax return.
For taxpayers who were affected by a federally declared disaster, here’s how to determine if you are eligible for relief:
- Individuals whose principal residence and any business entity whose place of business is located in counties designated as federally declared disaster areas.
- Any individual who is a relief worker assisting in a covered disaster area, regardless of whether they are affiliated with a recognized government or philanthropic organizations.
- Individuals whose principal residence and any business entity whose principal place of business is not located in a covered disaster area but whose records necessary to meet the filing or payment deadline are maintained in a covered disaster area.
- Estates or trust that have tax records necessary to meet filing or payment deadlines in a covered disaster area.
- Any spouse of an affected taxpayer with regard to a joint return of the husband and wife.
