Deductions & credits

You have a few options to calculate the rent value.

 

- Check your rental agreement or monthly statement to see if the costs are broken down

- Ask the facility administration for a written statement showing how much of your payment is just for the housing portion

- Estimate the value of the meals and heat and subtract that from your total payment

 

For the most accurate results, try to get documentation from your facility showing the housing-only portion of your payments.
