Actuaries tax write-offs

Varies

What Can Actuaries Write Off?

Short answer: Consulting actuaries deduct exam study materials for further designations, SOA dues, software, and E&O insurance; employees can't federally.

Self-employed workers deduct these on Schedule C, cutting income tax and the 15.3% self-employment tax; keep receipts and a mileage log.

Records to keep: Keep receipts, 1099s or W-2s, a mileage log, and a note of the business purpose for each expense.
