Merit pay. Merit pay is a term that describes performance-related pay, most frequently in the context of educational reform or government civil service reform (government jobs). It provides bonuses for workers who perform their jobs effectively, according to easily measurable criteria.
Coinsurance is the percentage of your medical bill you share with your insurance company after youâve paid your deductible. Unless you have a policy with 100 percent coverage for everything, you have to pay a coinsurance amount. You have an â80/20â plan.
It would seem that this part is definitely deductible. The state registration appears to be a flat fee based on the vehicle type (passenger vehicles, for example, are $12/year). The wheel tax appears to be based solely on the type of vehicle. Both of these definitely don't appear to qualify. The surtax is a bit iffy; IC 6-3.5-4-7.3 appears to state that the surtax is based on the calculations begun in section 6-6-5, which would make it based on the value of the vehicle. Bottom Line: based on the code referenced, the county tax is definitely deductible on your 1040.
