2019 Schedule M1SA Instrucons
Should I le this schedule?
Complete and le Schedule M1SA, Minnesota Itemized Deductions, to claim
itemized deductions on your Minnesota income tax return. Generally, you
will benet more by ling Schedule M1SA if your itemized deductions are
more than your standard deduction. Use the Standard Deduction Table to
determine your standard deduction.
You may le Schedule M1SA even if you did not le federal Schedule A. If
you led federal Schedule A, many of the amounts on that schedule will be
used for this schedule.
If you led federal Form 1040-NR or 1040-NR-EZ , you are not eligible
for the standard deduction unless it is allowed by a U.S. tax treaty. You
may qualify for certain Minnesota itemized deductions such as charitable
contributions, casualty and theft losses, and certain miscellaneous
deductions. If you entered amounts on lines 2 through 7 of Form 1040-NR,
Schedule A, see instructions for lines 15-19 and line 24 of this schedule to
determine your Minnesota itemized deduction.
Line Instrucons
Line 1 — Medical and Dental Expenses
If you led federal Schedule A and entered an amount on line 1, enter that amount on line 1 of Schedule M1SA. If you did not le Schedule
A or enter an amount on line 1 of Schedule A, enter the total of your medical and dental expenses after you reduce these expenses by any
payments received from insurance or other sources.
Examples of Medical and Dental Payments You Can Deduct
To the extent you were not reimbursed, you can deduct what you paid for:
Insurance premiums for medical and dental care, including premiums for qualied long-term care insurance contracts. Reduce the insurance
premiums by any self-employed health insurance deduction you claimed on federal Schedule 1, line 16. You cannot deduct insurance
premiums paid with pretax dollars because the premiums are not included in box 1 of your federal Form W-2. If you are a retired public
safety ocer, you cannot deduct any premiums you paid to the extent they were paid for with a tax-free distribution from your retirement
plan.
Prescription medicines or insulin.
Acupuncturists, chiropractors, dentists, eye doctors, medical doctors, occupational therapists, osteopathic doctors, physical therapists,
podiatrists, psychiatrists, psychoanalysts (medical care only), and psychologists.
Medical examinations, X-ray and laboratory services, insulin treatment, and whirlpool baths your doctor ordered.
Diagnostic tests, such as a full-body scan, pregnancy test, or blood sugar test kit.
Nursing help (including your share of the employment taxes paid). If you paid someone to do both nursing and housework, you can deduct
only the cost of the nursing help.
Hospital care (including meals and lodging), clinic costs, and lab fees.
Qualied long-term care services.
The supplemental part of Medicare insurance (Medicare B).
The premiums you pay for Medicare Part D insurance.
A program to stop smoking and any prescription medicines to alleviate nicotine withdrawal.
A weight-loss program as treatment for a specic disease (including obesity) diagnosed by a doctor.
Medical treatment at a center for drug or alcohol addiction.
Medical aids such as eyeglasses, contact lenses, hearing aids, braces, crutches, wheelchairs, and guide dogs, and the cost to maintain them.
Surgery to improve defective vision, such as laser eye surgery or radial keratotomy.
Lodging expenses (but not meals) while away from home to receive medical care provided by a physician in a hospital or a medical care
facility related to a hospital, provided there was no signicant element of personal pleasure, recreation, or vacation in the travel.
Ambulance service and other travel costs to get medical care. If you used your own vehicle to go to and from a place to receive care, you can
claim 18 cents per mile or what you actually spent for gas and oil. Add parking and tolls to the amount you claim under either method.
Cost of breast pumps and supplies that assist lactation.
Limit on long-term care premiums you can deduct
If the person was, at the end of 2019, age Then the most you can deduct is

Examples of Medical and Dental Payments You Cannot Deduct
The cost of diet food.
Cosmetic surgery, unless it was necessary to improve a deformity related to a congenital abnormality, an injury from an accident or trauma,
or a disguring disease.

The Medicare tax on your wages and tips, or the Medicare tax paid as part of the self-employment tax or household employment taxes.
Nursing care for a healthy baby.
Illegal operations or drugs.
Imported drugs not approved by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA). This includes foreign-made versions of U.S.-approved drugs
manufactured without FDA approval.
Nonprescription medicines other than insulin (including nicotine gum and certain nicotine patches).
Travel your doctor told you to take for rest or a change.
Funeral, burial, or cremation costs.
Whose medical and dental expenses can you include? You can include medical and dental bills you paid in 2019 for anyone who was one of
the following either when the services were provided or when you paid for them.
Yourself and your spouse.
All dependents you claim on your return.
Your child whom you do not claim as a dependent because of the rules for children of divorced or separated parents.
Any person you could have claimed as a dependent on your return unless that person received $4,250 or more of gross income or led a joint
return.
Any person you could have claimed as a dependent except that you, or your spouse if ling jointly, can be claimed as a dependent on
someone else’s 2019 return.
Reimbursements. If your insurance company paid the provider directly for part of your expenses, and you paid only the amount that remained,
include on line 1 only the amount you paid. If you received a reimbursement in 2019 for medical or dental expenses you paid in 2019, reduce
your 2019 expenses by this amount. If you received a reimbursement in 2019 for prior year medical or dental expenses, do not reduce your
2019 expenses by this amount.
Cafeteria plans. You cannot deduct amounts that were already excluded from your income. Do not include on line 1 insurance premiums paid
by an employer-sponsored health insurance plan (cafeteria plan) unless the premiums are included in box 1 of your Form(s) W-2. Also, do not
include any other medical and dental expenses paid by the plan unless the amount paid is included in box 1 of your Form(s) W-2.
Line 5 — Real Estate Taxes
If you led federal Schedule A, enter the amount from line 5b.
Include state and local taxes you paid on real estate if all of the following apply:
You did not use the real estate for business.
The taxes were assessed uniformly at a like rate on all real property throughout the community.
The tax proceeds are used for general community or governmental purposes.
Internal Revenue Service (IRS) Publication 530 explains the deductions homeowners can take.
Do not include:
Itemized charges for services to specic property or persons (for example, a $20 monthly charge per house for trash collection, a $5 charge
for every 1,000 gallons of water consumed, or a at charge for mowing a lawn that had grown higher than permitted under local ordinance).
Charges for improvements that tend to increase the value of your property (for example, an assessment to build a new sidewalk). The cost of
property improvement is added to the basis of the property. However, a charge is deductible if it is used only to maintain an existing public
facility in service (for example, a charge to repair an existing sidewalk, and any interest included in that charge).
If your mortgage payments include real estate taxes, you can deduct only the amount the mortgage company actually paid to the taxing
authority in 2019.
If you sold your home in 2019, any real estate tax charged to the buyer should be shown on your settlement statement and in box 6 of any
federal Form 1099-S you received. This amount is considered a refund of real estate taxes (see Refunds and rebates). Any real estate taxes
you paid at closing should be shown on your settlement statement.
Refunds and rebates. If you received a refund or rebate in 2019 such as from a 2018 Form M1PR, Homestead Credit Refund (for
Homeowners) and Renters Property Tax Refund, reduce your deduction by the amount of the refund or rebate.
Line 6 — Personal Property Taxes
If you led federal Schedule A and you had an amount on line 5c, enter that amount on line 6 of Schedule M1SA. Enter the state and local
personal property taxes you paid, but only if the taxes were based on value alone and imposed on a yearly basis.
Example. You paid a yearly fee for the registration of your car. Part of the fee was based on the cars value and part was a xed amount (such
as wheelage and technology fees). You can deduct only the part of the fee that was based on the car’s value.
If you are claiming registration tax for a vehicle registered in Minnesota, the amount of registration tax you paid is available at the Driver
and Vehicle division’s website at https://dps.mn.gov/divisions/dvs/Pages/default.aspx and choose Calculate Registration Tax in the Online
Services drop-down menu.
Connued
Line 9 — Other Taxes
If you had any deductible tax not listed on lines 5 or 6, list the type and amount of tax. Include income tax you paid to a foreign country or U.S.
possession. You cannot claim a deduction for foreign taxes if you included those taxes on federal Form 1116.
Lines 11 through 13 — Interest You Paid
The rules for deducting interest vary, depending on whether the loan proceeds are used for business, personal, or investment activities. See
IRS Publication 535 for more information about deducting business interest expenses. See IRS Publication 550 for more information about
deducting investment interest expenses. You cannot deduct personal interest.
If you use the proceeds of a loan for more than one purpose (for example, personal and business), you must allocate the interest on the loan to
each use. Do not allocate home mortgage interest if it is fully deductible, regardless of how you used the funds.
You allocate interest (other than fully deductible home mortgage interest) on a loan in the same way as the loan is allocated. Trace
disbursements of the debt proceeds to specic uses. For more information on allocating interest, see IRS Publication 535.
Generally, if you paid interest in 2019 that applies to any period after 2019, you can deduct only amounts that apply for 2019.
Line 11 — Home Mortgage Interest Reported on Federal Form 1098
If you led federal Schedule A, enter the amount from line 8a. Do not include any home equity loan interest that was included on line 8a. If you
meet the exception to the federal limitation for a loan taken out after December 15, 2017 but before April 1, 2018, follow the instructions for
limits on loans taken out on or after December 16, 2017 on Schedule M1SA.
Enter on line 11 mortgage interest and points reported to you on federal Form 1098.
A home mortgage is any loan secured by your main home or second home. It includes rst and second mortgages and renanced mortgages. A
home can be a house, condominium, cooperative, mobile home, boat, or similar property. The home must provide basic living accommodations,
including sleeping space, toilet, and cooking facilities.
Limit on loans taken out before December 16, 2017. For qualifying debt taken out before December 16, 2017, you can only deduct mortgage
interest on up to $1,000,000 ($500,000 if you are married ling a separate return) of that debt. The only exception is for loans taken out on or
before October 13, 1987. See IRS Publication 936, if you took out the loan on or before October 13, 1987.
Limit on loans taken out on or after December 16, 2017. For qualifying debt taken out on or after December 16, 2017, you can only deduct
home mortgage interest on up to $750,000 ($375,000 if you are married and ling a separate return) of that debt. If you also have qualifying
debt subject to the $1,000,000 limitation discussed under the previous paragraph, the $750,000 limit for debt taken out on or after December 16,
2017 is reduced by the amount of your qualifying debt subject to the $1,000,000 limit.
Refund of overpaid interest. If your Form 1098 shows any refund of overpaid interest, do not reduce your deduction by the refund.
Interest reported on someone else’s Form 1098. If you and at least one other person (other than your spouse if ling jointly) were liable for
and paid interest on the mortgage, and the interest was reported on the other person’s Form 1098, report your share of the interest on line 2 (See
IRS Publication 936 to calculate your mortgage interest deduction).
Form 1098 does not show all interest paid. If you paid more interest to the recipient than is shown on Form 1098, show the larger deductible
amount on line 11 and explain the dierence. If you are ling a paper return, explain the dierence by attaching a statement to your paper return
and printing “See attached” to the right of line 11.
Line 12 — Home Mortgage Interest not reported on federal Form 1098
If you led federal Schedule A, enter the amount from line 8b.
If you paid mortgage interest to a recipient who did not provide you a Form 1098, report your deductible mortgage interest on line 12.
Seller nanced mortgage. If you paid home mortgage interest to the person from whom you bought the home and that person did not provide
you a Form 1098, write that person’s name, identifying number, and address on the line next to line 12. If the recipient of your home mortgage
payment(s) is an individual, the identifying number is their Social Security number (SSN). Otherwise, it is the Federal Employer Identication
Number (FEIN). You must also let the recipient know your SSN.
Interest reported on someone else’s Form 1098. If you and at least one other person (other than your spouse if ling jointly) were liable for
and paid interest on the mortgage, and the home mortgage interest paid was reported on the other person’s Form 1098, identify the name and
address of the person or persons who received a Form 1098 reporting the interest you paid. If you are ling a paper return, identify the person
by attaching a statement to your paper return and printing “See attached” to the right of line 12.
Points not reported on Form 1098. Points are shown on your settlement statement. Points you paid only to borrow money are generally
deductible over the life of the loan. See IRS Publication 936 to gure the amount you can deduct. Points paid for other purposes, such as for a
lenders services, are not deductible.
Renancing. Generally, you must deduct points you paid to renance a mortgage over the life of the loan. This is true even if the new mortgage
is secured by your main home.
If you used part of the proceeds to improve your main home, you may be able to deduct the part of the points related to the improvement in the
year paid. See IRS Publication 936 for details.
Line 13 — Investment Interest
If you led federal Schedule A, enter the amount from line 9.
Investment interest is interest paid on money you borrowed that is allocable to property held for investment. It does not include any interest
allocable to passive activities or to securities generating tax-exempt income.
Connued
Complete and attach a 2019 federal Form 4952 for Minnesota purposes to gure your deduction unless all three of the following apply:
Your investment interest expense is less than your investment income from interest and ordinary dividends minus any qualied dividends.
You have no other deductible investment expenses.
You have no disallowed investment interest expense from 2018.
Lines 15 through 17 — Charitable Contribuons
You can deduct contributions you gave to organizations that are religious, charitable, educational, scientic, or literary in purpose. You can also
deduct what you gave to organizations that work to prevent cruelty to children or animals. See IRS Publication 526 for details.
To verify an organization’s charitable status:
Check with the organization you donated to. The organization should be able to verify its charitable status.
Use the online search tool at www.irs.gov/EOSelectCheck to see if an organization is eligible to receive tax-deductible contributions.
Examples of Qualied Charitable Organizaons
The following list gives some examples of qualied organizations. See IRS Publication 526 for more examples.
Churches, mosques, synagogues, temples, and other religious organizations.
Boy Scouts, Boys and Girls Clubs of America, CARE, Girl Scouts, Goodwill Industries, Red Cross, Salvation Army, and United Way.
Fraternal orders, if the contributions will be used for the purposes listed under Charitable Contributions.
Veterans’ and certain cultural groups.
Nonprot hospitals and medical research organizations.
Most nonprot educational organizations, such as colleges, but only if your contribution is not a substitute for tuition or other enrollment fees.
Federal, state, and local governments, if the contributions are solely for public purposes.
Amounts You Can Deduct
Contributions can be in cash, property, or out-of-pocket expenses you paid to do volunteer work for the kinds of organizations described earlier.
If you drove to and from the volunteer work, you can take the actual cost of gas and oil or 14 cents a mile. Add parking and tolls to the amount
you claim under either method. Do not deduct any amounts repaid to you.
Contributions from which you benet. If you made a contribution and received a benet in return, such as food, entertainment, or
merchandise, you can generally only deduct the amount that is more than the value of the benet. However, this rule does not apply to certain
membership benets provided in return for an annual payment of $75 or less or to certain items or benets of token value. For details, see IRS
Publication 526.
Example. You paid $70 to a charitable organization to attend a fundraising dinner and the value of the dinner was $40. You can deduct only $30.
Contributions of $250 or more. You can deduct a contribution of $250 or more only if you have a statement from the charitable organization
showing both of the following:
The amount of any money contributed and a description (but not value) of any property donated.
Whether the organization did or did not give you any goods or services in return for your contribution. If you did receive any goods or
services, they must include a description and estimate of the value. If you received only intangible religious benets (such as admission to a
religious ceremony), the organization must state this, but it does not have to describe or value the benet.
In guring whether a donation is $250 or more, do not combine separate donations. For example, if you gave your church $25 each week for a
total of $1,300, treat each $25 payment as a separate donation. If you made donations through payroll deductions, treat each deduction from each
paycheck as a separate donation. See IRS Publication 526 if you made a separate donation of $250 or more through payroll deduction.
Limit on the amount you can deduct. See IRS Publication 526 to gure the amount of your deduction if any of the following apply:
Your cash contributions or contributions of ordinary income property are more than 30 percent of the amount on line 1 of Form M1.
Your contributions of capital gain property are more than 20 percent of the amount on line 1 of Form M1.
You gave contributions of property that increased in value or gave donations of the use of property.
Amounts you cannot deduct
Travel expenses (including meals and lodging) while away from home performing donated services, unless there was no signicant element of
personal pleasure, recreation, or vacation in the travel.
Political contributions.
Dues, fees, or bills paid to country clubs, lodges, fraternal orders, or similar groups.
Cost of rae, bingo, or lottery tickets.
Value of your time or services.
Value of blood given to a blood bank.
The transfer of a future interest in tangible personal property. Generally, no deduction is allowed until the entire interest has been transferred.
Donations to individuals and groups that are operated for personal prot.
Donations to foreign organizations. However, you may be able to deduct donations to certain U.S. organizations that transfer funds to foreign
charities and certain Canadian, Israeli, and Mexican charities. See IRS Publication 526 for details.
Donations to organizations engaged in certain political activities that are of direct nancial interest to your trade or business.
Connued
Donations to groups whose purpose is to lobby for changes in the laws.
Donations to civic leagues, social and sports clubs, labor unions, and chambers of commerce.
Value of benets received in connection with a contribution to a charitable organization. See IRS Publication 526 for exceptions.
Cost of tuition. However, you may be able to deduct this as a job education expense on line 20 or take an education credit.
Line 15 — Charitable Contribuons by Cash or Check
If you led federal Schedule A, enter the amount from line 11. Do not include amounts that were made to qualied disaster relief organizations
that exceed your contribution limits.
If you led federal Form 1040-NR, enter the amount from line 2 of Schedule A.
Enter on line 15 the total value of donations you made in cash or by check (including out-of-pocket expenses).
Recordkeeping. For any contribution made in cash, regardless of the amount, keep a bank record of the contribution (such as a canceled check
or credit card statement) or a written record from the charity. The written record must include the name of the charity, date, and amount of the
contribution. If you made contributions through payroll deduction, see IRS Publication 526. Do not attach the record to your tax return.
Line 16 — Other Than by Cash or Check
If you led federal Schedule A, enter the amount from line 12.
If you led federal Form 1040-NR, enter the amount from line 3 of Schedule A.
Enter the total value of your contributions of property other than by cash or check. If you gave used items, such as clothing or furniture, deduct
their fair market value at the time you gave them. Fair market value is what a willing buyer would pay a willing seller when neither has to buy
or sell and both are aware of the conditions of the sale. For more details on determining the value of donated property, see IRS Publication 561.
Deduction more than $500. If the amount of your deduction is more than $500, you must complete and attach a statement identifying the date
of contribution, name of the charitable organization, description of the property, and the fair market value.
Contribution of motor vehicle, boat, or airplane. If you deduct more than $500 for a contribution of a motor vehicle, boat, or airplane, you
must also attach a statement from the charitable organization to your paper return. The organization may use Form 1098-C to provide the
required information. If your total deduction is over $5,000 ($500 for certain contributions of clothing and household items), you may also have
to get appraisals of the values of the donated property. See federal Form 8283 and its instructions for details.
Recordkeeping. If you gave property, you should keep a receipt or written statement from the organization you gave the property to, or a
reliable written record that shows the organization’s name and address, the date and location of the gift, and a description of the property. For
each gift of property, you should also keep reliable written records that include:
How you gured the property’s value at the time you gave it. If the value was determined by an appraisal, keep a signed copy of the
appraisal.
The cost or other basis of the property if you must reduce it by any ordinary income or capital gain that would have resulted if the property
had been sold at its fair market value.
How you gured your deduction if you chose to reduce your deduction for donations of capital gain property.
Any conditions attached to the donation.
Line 17 — Carryover from Prior Year
If you led federal Schedule A, enter the amount from line 13.
If you led federal Form 1040-NR, enter the amount from line 4 of Schedule A.
If you have contributions that you could not deduct in an earlier year because they exceeded the limits on the amount you could deduct,
you have ve years, in most cases, to use those contributions. The same limits apply this year to your carryover amounts as applied to those
amounts in the earlier year. After applying those limits, enter the amount of your carryover that you are allowed to deduct this year. See IRS
Publication 526 for details.
Line 19 — Casualty and The Losses
Complete Schedule M1CAT, Casualty and Theft. If you led federal Schedule A and entered an amount on line 15, complete a Schedule

Corrosive drywall losses. If you paid for repairs to your personal residence or household appliances because of corrosive drywall, you may be
able to deduct on line 19 those amounts paid. See IRS Publication 547 for details.
Connued
Line 20 — Unreimbursed Employee Expenses
Complete and enclose Schedule M1UE, Unreimbursed Employee Business Expenses. If you are married, ling a joint return, and each you and
your spouse are claiming a deduction for unreimbursed employee expenses, each spouse must complete a separate Schedule M1UE with their
own expense and reimbursement amounts.
Enter the total ordinary and necessary job expenses you paid for which you were not reimbursed. (Amounts your employer included in box 1 of
your Form W-2 are not considered reimbursements.)
An ordinary expense is one that is common and accepted in your eld of trade, business, or profession. A necessary expense is one that is
helpful and appropriate for your business. An expense does not have to be required to be considered necessary.
You must complete Schedule M1UE if either of the following apply:
You claim any travel, transportation, meal, or entertainment expenses for your job.
Your employer reimbursed you for any of your job expenses that you would otherwise report on line 20.
Do not include educator expenses you deducted on line 10 of federal Schedule 1.
