- Over the last few years, medical premiums have skyrocketed; but premiums are deductible on your taxes.
- Schedule C/Solopreneur/Single Member LLC – As long as you pay the insurance premium individually or from your business bank account, the premium is deductible.
- C Corp – You need to make sure the premiums are being paid by the corporation, not you as an individual.
- Partnership/S Corp – S Corporations can be paid through the corporation or at the individual level, but it needs to be reported through your payroll processing company to end up on your W-2 at the end of the year.
