Whats considered a casualty for tax purposes? Its a sudden, unexpected or unusual event, such as a hurricane, tornado, flood, earthquake, fire, act of vandalism or a terrorist attack.
Definition of casualty loss In a business, casualty losses are typically shown as an extraordinary item net of tax in the income statement. For example, if the casualty loss is $10,000 and the company is in the 34% tax bracket, the after-tax loss presented in the income statement is $6600 = $10,000 (1-. 34).
You may be eligible to claim a casualty deduction for your property loss if you suffer property damage during the tax year as a result of a sudden, unexpected or unusual event.
Casualty and theft losses are miscellaneous itemized deductions that are reported on IRS Form 4684, which carries over to Schedule A, then to the 1040 form.
