One business owner paid $21,600 a year for family health insurance. He thought he was getting the tax deduction—but a simple S corporation reporting mistake cost him about $7,000 a year. In this episode, Tiffany explains how the self-employed health insurance deduction really works. You’ll learn why the rules change for sole proprietors, partners, and S corporation owners. You’ll also discover three traps that can erase the deduction, including low earned income, access to an employer health plan, and missing W-2 reporting. These practical tax tips can help you improve your tax planning and avoid leaving valuable tax savings on the table. Tiffany also explains why this deduction lowers income tax but not self-employment tax. If you pay for your own health insurance, listen now—before another tax year slips away.
