Floors (in Taxes)

Floors (in Taxes) In taxation, floors refer to minimum thresholds or base amounts that must be exceeded before a particular tax provision, deduction, or credit can apply. They set a lower limit, ensuring that only taxpayers whose expenses or income exceed the floor are eligible for the benefit. Floors are commonly used in deductions for medical expenses, casualty losses, or itemized deductions. Example: If medical expenses are deductible only above 5% of a taxpayer’s income, this 5% acts as the floor. Expenses below this threshold do not qualify for a deduction
