The 2018 casualty loss form provides for a $500 casualty loss haircut and allows a standard deduction as opposed to being required to itemize with the 10% floor. Hurricane Irma &amp; Maria occurred before 2018. The $500 provision is still in tack in 2018. This is the 3rd time I asked this question. Please send me an answer.</P> Sun, 02 Jun 2019 04:11:14 GMT mp4569 2019-06-02T04:11:14Z https://ttlc.intuit.com/community/tax-credits-deductions/discussion/do-hurricane-florence-victims-qualify-for-the-500-casualty-loss-haircut-and-take-the-standard/01/277221#M33719 <P>I suffered substantial damage from Hurricane Florence.
