If a stripper gets breast implants can she write it off on her taxes as a business expense?

Answer 1

Legally I don't see why she can't, however I wouldn’t advise it.

I know that insurance companies don't cover such surgery, but most Strippers are independent contracts and have to pay for their own medical care.

Breast implants will enhance her income and they are directly related to her work so she should be able to convince the IRS that this is a valid deduction. It isn't listed on the Small Business Tax Deductions forms, but she can write it in, and she is certainly a small (one person) business.

Of course if she isn't declaring her stripper income then the IRS would be likely to investigate. Strippers don't get paid a salary; in fact most of them have to pay the strip club a stage rental fee (which would also be tax deductible). The only pay they get is tips, the fees they charge for lap dances, those tips, and what they charge in the private party rooms.

Since the IRS felt it wasn't getting enough tip income from waitress it automatically charges them 7% tax for all the food they serve. So the stripper's tips would be subject to those rules (the tax code is based on tip income, not where they get them from). Waitresses are issued a document from their employer that states the dollar value of all the food they serve, but strippers don't get such a document. In fact the only people that keep track of the stripper's income is the stripper herself.

If a stripper tries to deduct her breast implants as a business expense, then they better have tax records that prove that they are in a business where the implants would help her income, another words as a worker in the sex trade industry. I have no idea how the average stripper declares her income, if they lie, or if they pay the required self-employment tax. I think that a lot of them would claim their income from a more respectable "day time job." In this case they would launch an investigation if they claimed breast implants as a business deduction. They surely wouldn't want IRS inspectors in their home or showing up at their place of work. If the club finds out then they may band the stripper from working there.

Yes, a stripper could claim breast implants as a business deduction, but only if they claim that they are strippers on their tax forms. Otherwise I wouldn't advise it.

This is one of those questions that seems like a silly stupid question, and then when you think about it more you realize it really is a pretty good question.

The question really is, are you self-employeed? If you are, I believe the answer would have to be yes, unless there is some specific stipulation in the tax codes. If you work for someone else (you get a W-2 from them and have taxes taken out), I don't think you can. Perhaps if it is a requirement of your employer you could, but otherwise it is not strickly a business expense.

To be 100% certain, I would contact a couple of CPAs and see if they agree.

Hi,
If you want to learn how to make make your breasts grow bigger naturally without the aid of any harmful or artificial substances visit http://breastenlargement.toptips.org

Breast development begins at puberty and is regulated by the balance of specific hormones.
Medical research has shown that the development of breast tissue depends on the delicate balance of progesterone, estrogen, prostaglandins, prolactin and other compounds. An imbalance of these hormones can result in poor breast development or even atrophy (decrease in size).
Phytoestrogens are a group of substances found in plants that have moderate estrogenic properties. The phytoestrogens compete for the same receptor cells as true estrogen. Phytoestrogens, through their natural balance of female hormones, promote the development of glandular breast tissue and act as a powerful natural breast enlargement factor. Most women taking herbs containing these phytoestrogens notice a significant increase in the fullness and balance of their breasts.
There are a number of herbs that have been promoted by different companies that contain good levels of phytoestrogens and have the action of promoting breast tissue growth and tone.

Answer 4

Any medical expense not covered my your insurance may be used as a deduction. And really they probably paid for themselves. If she is working as an independent contractor and not for the club, then they may be written off as a business expense.

Answer 5

The new breast size depends on how much she can write off. With a size D or more, she could write off more. Ha.
