Can I claim lost wages as a deduction?
Can I claim lost wages due to being held off work by my employer to attend therapy for my illness? I was held out of work by my employer until I received a clearance from their medical director. I am on salary, and the amount is verifiable. My health plan reimbursed the provider, and I am claiming travel and incidentals for expenses directly related to the mandated therapy. The problem is that I lost nearly three months wages that have not been reimbursed by disability insurance, and only marginally reimbursed by Unemployment, which is taxable income. I need to show the remaining loss of wages as a Capital Loss, or similar casualty. Any way to do this?
