Are medical expenses deductible on NM taxes for non-residents?
We don't live in NM anymore, but still get some income there so we have to file NM taxes. In previous years I have been able to pin down medical expenses that actually happened in NM, so that's all I've been deducting. New for 2022 we are paying Medicare premiums. One of us actually generates the NM income, is not getting SS, so the Medicare premiums are being paid directly. Are these premiums deductible on our NM forms?
The other one of us is getting SS, so the Medicare premiums are being deducted automatically - but this person does not generate any NM income, so I am hesitant to try deducting a non-NM expense.
Both of us are paying for Long Term Care insurance premiums, but again, is this item deductible for the person who doesn't have any financial connections to NM?
Meanwhile, TT is carrying the medicare premiums that were attached to the SS form. If I can't use them in NM, I believe I'll have to go into the SS reporting form and manually zero out the premium.
