  • My spouse is retired and had no earned income. I, however, did have earned income and I participate in my company's retirement plan. If we file married filing jointly, is she eligible to make a deductible traditional IRA contribution based on my income?
  • My parents took out a student loan, but I'm now an independent taxpayer making the payments. Who can claim the interest deduction, me or my parents?
  • I make support payments to my ex-spouse for her and our two minor children in her custody. Are these payments deductible as alimony?
