Recently at work, we were forced to start paying "agency fees" to a union if we didn't become full fledged union members....anybody know if these fees are tax deductible, either Fed or State (CA)?
overboard said:don't know about that! may depend if you'r on the long or short form. also may be on one or the other(state or fed.) best to check. I paid $600.00 in interest one year, and found out I couldn't use it. total deductions( to get on the long form) had to exceed the standard deduction, and they didn't. everyone said I could deduct this interest-I couldnt!
But, as Ahab said, the fees are deductable. Just not for you. :wink:charlietuna said:overboard said:don't know about that! may depend if you'r on the long or short form. also may be on one or the other(state or fed.) best to check.

Yeah, did some more checking around after I posted the first time and essentially found what you said....thanks for the response though...
