I believe you have to have already paid the bills. Joan

Subject: Medical Bills and Taxes

Hello All,

Just setting in the aftermath of the Blizzard of 2011 here in Indiana doing my

taxes..

On HRBLOCK.COM. there is a deduction in the itemized section about out-of-pocket

medical expense.. Does this expense have to be Bills that I have already paid?

Or can it be Bills that I've accumilated through the year that my insurance

didn't pay and I haven't either (DEBT).?

Thanks, Bill in Snowy Indiana

I think you would need receipts of payment to back up the deductions. BARB

They have to be paid to use them so only the ones you paid in 2010

Any deduction need to be out of your control by midnight 12/31. To that to

happen the least allowable is postmarked by then.
