She received $25,000 in social security benefits. John and Karen provide over one-half of the mom's support. The couple received salaries totalling $150,000, qualified business income of $13,000 from a partnership investment, $4,000 of interest income from a State of IL municipal bond, and $2,000 of interest income from a savings account. They sold their home this year for $575,000. They initially purchased their home three years ago for $450,000. The gain on the sale qualified for the exclusion from the sale of a principal residence. Publics incurred $23,000 of itemized deductions and had $21,500 of federal tax withheld from their paychecks.
