When To Itemize Deductions i Or Take The 10 Per Cent Cut | "Fourth of Six Articles on How to Make Out Your Federal Income Tax Return.) By FRANCIS J KF.LI.Y AP Newsfeatures Writer WASHINGTON ? It may pay you to itemize your non-business deductions on your federal income tax return, instead of taking the j standard 10 per cent allowance based on your income. A comparison of the tax com puted under each system certain ly Is in order if you paid out a lot of interest on a home mortgage, or Incurred heavy medical or hos pital bills. The government neither wants nor expects you to pay more than the mihimum tax due, honestly figured. You can itemize deductions only H you use long-forin 1040. Otherwise you are automatically given a credit of about 10 per cent of your income. The principal allowable deduc tions are state and local taxes; in terest paid; contributions to reli gious, charitable and educational organizations; property losses by fire, storm or theft; and?under strict limitations ? some medical, dental, hospital and nursing ex penses. Limits on Contributions Contributions to religious, char itable and educational organiza tions are deductible only up to 20 per cent of your income. You don't get anything olT your tax bill for gifts to needy individuals, or to political organizaitons, or labor unions, or chambers of commerce. You can deduct for real estate and personal property taxes, state income taxes, state or local sales taxes, state gakoline taxes, and automobile license fees. But you can't take anything off for federal income taxes paid, social security taxes, federal excise taxes puch as those on liquor, furs, Jewelry and phone calls, or for lo cpl taxes which tend to increase the value of real estate owned. A paving assessment Is a case in point. The law sets tight limits on the amount of medical expenses fot self and dependents that may be deducted. First, taxpayers under 65 can take off only that portion of such costs which exceeds 5 per cent of their adjusted gross in come. However, if eithpr you or your wife is 65 or over, you may claim the entire amount of medical expenses for both of you, plus that portion of your medical expenses ' for your dependents which exceeds 5 per cent of your income. Medical Expense Limits There are maximum limitations on medical expense deductions, too A single person who claims only one exemption is entitled to put in for not more than $1,250; a married couple filing a Joint re turn, $2,500: married, three ex | emptions, $3,750; and married with : lour or more exemptions, an over | all top of $5,000. Those limits ap i ply regardless of age. Allowable medical expenses in clude doctor, dentist, hospital and nursing bills; drugs and surgical appliances; false teeth and eye glasses; X-ray examinations or treatments; crutches, hearing aids and ambulance service; premiums on health, accident, medical or hos pital insurance and cost of travel necessary to get medical carc. However, you cannot deduct the cost of travel suggested by a doctor for rest or change; or funer al expenses, or life insurance premiums. If you itemize your deductions on long-form 1040, you can take olf your income any property los ses by fire, storm, flood, etc. Loss sustained in a car accident caused by faulty driving is deductible, but drunken driving is considered will ful negligence, and no deduction is allowed. Insurance Modifies Loss No deduction may be claimed if the loss is compensated for by insurance. If partially covered by insurance, the amount of the de duction is reduced accordingly. The law requires you to report as income any winnings you may have on the races, poker and other forms of gambling. But gambling losses may not be deducted in ex cess of gambling winnings. Alimony pr separate mainten ance payments made under a court decree may be deducted.
