Thanks Dave.....
I'll have to work my way through the IRS deduction route. I have not used Turbotax Full Service before, as my tax filings are normally simple. That likely not the case this year.
I applied to FEMA posting original question. Their response....While Helene was declared a disaster in FL, where I reside, and NC where we were vacationing, FEMA automatically denied my claim for NC damages, since I am not a resident of NC.
FEMA has been totally useless in both my NC Helene and my FL Milton claim. Go figure. Something wrong with that picture. Then and now, "fema" is about the strongest cuss word in the western NC mountains.
Thanks again.....Jim
