HCRA which year to count reimbursement?

Feb 11, 2008 1 Replies

I paid X into a HCRA in 2007, incurred and paid unreimbursed medical expenses >X in 2007, and will be reimbursed for those expenses from the HCRA in 2008. My question: do I subtract the HCRA reimbursement from my 2007 medical expenses, or from my 2008 medical expenses?

2007 - because your deduction is allowed only up to the point that it's unreimbursed or reimbursable. Reimbursement need not be in the same tax year.
