Health Insurance through spouse

Trish Meier · ‎February 28, 2024

I am self-employed and my husband will be adding me to his health insurance. We file separately and have completely separate finances and a prenup. Can I claim the amount I have to pay to him to cover the increase to his employer-sponsored health insurance?

No. Your husband is already receiving a deduction for the full amount that he is paying for the health insurance. You taking a deduction as well would be double dipping.
