RULE ANALYSIS
Purpose of the rule or reason for the change:
Income tax deductions for health care and long-term care insurance may be deducted only to the extent the amounts were included in federal adjusted gross income. Since these two deductions are aggregated with other amounts and the aggregate must reach a certain level before a federal deduction is allowed, it is unclear what amounts are included in federal adjusted gross income.
Summary of the rule or change:
The proposed change indicates that the income tax deductions for health care insurance and long-term care insurance shall be calculated in a manner to maximize the deduction.
