Was the $7806 deductible I paid to replace my pool equipment that was demolished during a tornado tax deductible?

    It depends. 

     

    For tax years 2018–2025, you can only deduct casualty losses on personal property if they are the result of a federally declared disaster area. Only the amount that exceeds 10% of your adjusted gross income is deductible.

     

    You can still deduct casualty losses on business property.

     

    For reference, see:

    - Publication 547

    - Casualty loss deduction limits

    - What if I have property that was lost or damaged?
