Long term care premiums (I wasn't sure which long term you meant, see below)

These premiums are deductible on Schedule A for a qualified long-term care plan, but the deduction is subject to special limits:

Qualified long-term care premiums are deductible up to the following amounts.

  1. Age 40 or under – $390.
  2. Age 41 to 50 – $730.
  3. Age 51 to 60 – $1,460
  4. Age 61 to 70 – $3,900
  5. Age 71 or over – $4,870
