I know of a couple of people. I think it likely gives you a good understanding of the healthcare industry that would lend well to consulting. Especially since we hard tag the healthcare folks. I'm not sure how much the firm values an MPH, though.

I have MPH. Been in consulting over 10 yrs now. Deloitte recruits several into the healthcare practice.....if you have some industry experience, even better.

Plus on a visa we cannot have other income. This is going to be a long game of catch up.

I work in insurance. I was working for an Allstate agent and was fired the day after my grandmothers funeral for being “unenthusiastic in our morning meeting”. Now I’m having anxiety searching for a job. I don’t think I want to sell anymore yet every single recruiter I interview with says I should, that I have a “salesperson mentality”. I’m burnt out. Has anyone else felt this way? How did handle it? Is there a different career path I can take or am I destined to sell insurance forever?

I read that you can tax deduct medical expenses not covered by insurance (incl. IVF treatment, meds, acupuncture, etc.) for the amount that exceeds 7.5% of your gross income.

Do you know if you need to deplete your HSA funds first? Or can I just keep that as is for the future and tax deduct my IVF related medical expenses incurred this year on my upcoming return?

Thank you!

Hi tax 🐠,

I have a question for those who prep individual tax returns. My parents claim my grandfather as a dependent on their tax return and due to their low income, receive PTC for the premiums they pay on his insurance (not eligible for medicare). However, would it be advantageous to have him file for his own tax return (he stays with my parents and doesn't have his own proof of residency via bills). If so, can he get PTC if his income is 0?

I’m in assistant manager at a company that sells dog and cat products. Our facility is overrun by mice and everywhere you look despite us cleaning between 4 to 6 hours a day (which takes away from what we could be doing normally)there is mouse fecal matter and pee everywhere. I have approached the company numerous times to bring in a cleaning crew and they expect us to do it. Despite the health concerns, they have ignored of my messages. Does anybody have any advice on how to move forward?
