[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]How much over $100k? It’s based on AGI not gross salary. [/quote]

Oh okay... I don't know what our AGI was, but my gross salary was a hair over 100k in 2018- Like 101k and my husband's was about 118k. But again, I don't know what his AGI was. Now I'll go and look at the tax documents. I didn't look before because I assumed that we weren't getting anything. I literally just check my account to pay other bills and saw the surprise direct deposit[/quote]

At 101K assuming you aggressively did things like fund your 401k you should get something.[/quote]

So maybe 401k and student loan interest deductions? Still a mystery, but I'll take it![/quote]

Student loan interest deductions are a deduction and have no impact on your AGI.

The ways to reduce AGI are:
Pre tax 401k or 403b deductions
Tax loss harvesting/losses on investments
If you have your own business, you take a loss on it (e.g., you have a farm that you take a loss on)

That is not true. It does lower your AGI up to $2500 if you meet a certain income limit. But OP is above the gross income limit, so it shouldn’t be relevant to HER AGI. But it’s not true to say that it doesn’t for some filers. [/quote]
