Disaster Casualty Loss Deductions

[rntcrawford]

We were displaced from our home for 3 months while it was repaired due to Hurricane Helene. Are temporary housing costs deductible?

[Mike9241]

If you are forced to leave your home due to a natural disaster, such as a hurricane or flood, temporary housing expenses incurred during this time are generally not tax deductible. However, there may be specific provisions or assistance programs that provide deductible relief in such circumstances.
