Reba Dixon is a fifth-grade school teacher who earned a salary of $38,300 in 2019. She is 45 years old and has been divorced for four years. She receives $1,290 of alimony payments each month from her former husband (divorced in 2016). Reba also rents out a small apartment building. This year Reba received $50,400 of rental payments from tenants and she incurred $19,656 of expenses associated with the rental. Reba and her daughter Heather (20 years old at the end of the year) moved to Georgia in January of this year. Reba provides more than one-half of Heather's support. They had been living in Colorado for the past 15 years, but ever since her divorce, Reba has been wanting to move back to Georgia to be closer to her family. Luckily, last December, a teaching position opened up and Reba and Heather decided to make the move. Reba paid a moving company $2,190 to move their personal belongings, and she and Heather spent two days driving the 1,462 miles to Georgia. Reba rented a home in Georgia. Heather decided to continue living at home with her mom, but she started attending school full-time in January and throughout the rest of the year at a nearby university. She was awarded a $3,180 partial tuition scholarship this year, and Reba helped out by paying the remaining $500 tuition cost. If possible, Reba thought it would be best to claim the education credit for these expenses. Reba wasn't sure if she would have enough items to help her benefit from itemizing on her tax return. However, she kept track of several expenses this year that she thought might qualify if she was able to itemize. Reba paid $5,980 in state income taxes and $12,680 in charitable contributions during the year. She also paid the following medical-related expenses for herself and Heather: Insurance premiums Medical care expenses Prescription medicine Nonprescription medicine New contact lenses for Heather $ 8,132 $1,280 $ 530 $ 280 Shortly after the move, Reba got distracted while driving and she ran into a street sign. The accident caused $1,080 in damage to the car and gave her whiplash. Because the repairs were less than her insurance deductible, she paid the entire cost of the repairs. Reba wasn't able to work for two months after the accident. Fortunately, she received $2,180 from her disability insurance. Her employer, the Central Georgia School District, paid 60% of the premiums on the policy as a nontaxable fringe benefit and Reba paid the remaining 40% portion.
