Can Consultants Write Off Health Insurance?
Short answer: Yes: self-employed consultants can deduct health, dental, and long-term care premiums above the line.
You can't take it for months you were eligible for an employer plan (yours or a spouse's), and it can't exceed your business profit.
Records to keep: Keep receipts, 1099s and platform tax summaries, a mileage log, and a note of the business purpose.
