Which Fertility Expenses Related to Donor Eggs are Deductible?
I have seen a number of responses to donor egg expenses being tax deductible, but I do have some more granular questions about specific fees I can't seem to find answers.
So for example, my girlfriend who will be claiming the deduction is of advanced maternal age and is required to use donor eggs. Our breakdown of the fees include:
- Egg Lot: $17,800
- Shipping Fee: $850
- Euploid Supplement Fee: $4,500
We know the egg lot fee for the eggs is tax deductible, but what about the fee to ship the eggs to our clinic and the supplement fee which is basically a rider to insure the eggs can be fertilized? The euploid supplement was an optional but necessary fee, but not sure the IRS would go as far as picking this apart.
Can anyone provide some experience or guidance? It would be greatly appreciated.
Thank You
Jason
