You are correct. TT should account for this in the adjustments section of the state interview. I am not a TT employee but, if it does not, I can contact TT reps.
Medical and Dental Expenses
If you claimed a deduction for medical expenses on your 2017 federal return, you must make an addition on your Virginia return to account for the difference in the amount allowed in Virginia. In Virginia, you can deduct the total amount of qualified medical and dental expenses that exceeds 10% of your federal adjusted gross income. On your federal return, you can deduct the amount that exceeds 7.5%. Because the threshold is higher in Virginia, you must make an addition on your Virginia return to account for the difference.
Use Code 99 on Schedule ADJ (Schedule 760PY ADJ for part-year residents; Schedule 763 ADJ for nonresidents) to compute the amount you need to add back to your Virginia return.
Visit www.irs.gov for more information about which medical and dental expenses are eligible for deduction.
If you have already filed your 2017 Virginia individual income tax return, and claimed a deduction for medical and dental expenses, you will need to amend your return.
