* The $1,000 is not an automatic deduction. A client can claim up to that amount per category without providing verification, but she or he must first claim to have had that expense.

If deductions in a category exceed $1,000/year and verification is NOT received, the deduction will NOT be allowed.

EXCEPTION: If a deduction is questionable, regardless of the amount, and verification is NOT received, the deduction will NOT be allowed.
