Q: Just wondering if anyone has any idea if , these immigration related charges/fees/lawyer fee etc.. are TAX Deductible??
A: There are many arguments on this point before. Some say yes some say no. Here is my take on this. The reason why US is independent from U.K. is because of unreasonable high tax. So US's tax system in certain area remains vague. However, there is a rule called - laugh test. When it comes to audit, if an expense shows on the tax form makes the auditor laugh, then it should not be on the tax form. The employment based immigration related charges are highly related to your employment here. It can be listed in employment misc expense. I don't want to deal with auditor so I hire an accountant to list all expenses in the tax form. The accountant will represent me in case of audit. So far, there is no audit yet. So basically, listing this item in tax form will not cause IRS to laugh so it should be fine. Hope this helps.
