Deductions & credits

Her monthly applied income payment to the nursing home is over $4000.  Yes, Medicaid is paying the difference.  I called my congressman’s office and was told they heard from another constituent with the same problem.  Later I heard from the nursing home that at least 3 other residents on Medicaid owe federal taxes.  I relayed this information to my congressman’s office as well.   We are aware of the change in the medical deduction and expect federal taxes to exceed $300 next year so am relieved that others are experiencing this as well.  It will have to be addressed.  Thanks for the input!
