Michael posted a link earlier for what was included and not included in establishing your MAGI for ACA purposes. I can not find that link now (I thought I had it bookmarked) As I recall, it did not go into deductions so much in any detail. What I am wondering is, if you have a capital loss on your books of which you can deduct $3,000 per year against any capital gains or dividends or interest, will this $3,000 deduction be allowed in arriving at your MAGI for ACA purposes?
I did discuss it with my accountant, and he is not sure, as he says there are many MAGI calculations, and they differ, and he assumes the new ACA will have it's own. So, first I am asking Michael to provide that link again, and secondly, does anyone know whether the $3,000 capital loss can be utilized against the interest or dividend income?
