Health insurance premiums deduction

[nycseattle903455]

My domestic partner was covered under my employer's health insurance plans. Because we weren't legally married, the premiums were deducted from my pay check after tax and imputed income was recorded. My domestic partner paid me for these premiums. Can my domestic partner deduct these health insurance premiums on their return as medical expenses for 2016? It was for medical, dental, and vision.

Yes, the amounts can be deducted by your domestic partner because they ultimately paid the premium.
