In this subdivision, “long-term care insurance policy” means a disability insurance policy or certificate advertised, marketed, offered or designed primarily to provide coverage for care that is provided in the insured person’s home or in institutional and community-based settings and that is convalescent or custodial care or care for a chronic condition or terminal illness; the term does not include a medicare supplement policy or medicare replacement policy or a continuing care contract, as defined in s. 647.01 (2). “Long-term care insurance policy” applies to a policy that covers the person and his or her spouse.

71.05(6)(b)26.b. b. From the amount calculated under subd. 26. a., subtract the amounts deducted from gross income for a long-term care insurance policy in the calculation of federal adjusted gross income.

71.05(6)(b)26.c. c. For a person who is a nonresident or a part-year resident of this state, modify the amount calculated under subd. 26. b. by multiplying the amount by a fraction the numerator of which is the person’s wages, unearned income and net earnings from a trade or business that are taxable by this state and the denominator of which is the person’s total wages, unearned income and net earnings from a trade or business.

71.05(6)(b)26.d. d. Reduce the amount calculated under subd. 26. b. or c. to the person’s aggregate wages, unearned income and net earnings from a trade or business that are taxable by this state.

71.05(6)(b)28. 28. An amount paid by a claimant for tuition expenses and mandatory student fees for a student who is the claimant or who is the claimant’s child and the claimant’s dependent, as defined under section 152 of the Internal Revenue Code, to attend any university, college, technical college or a school approved under s. 440.52, that is located in Wisconsin or to attend a public vocational school or public institution of higher education in Minnesota under a reciprocity agreement under s. 36.27 (2r) or 39.47, calculated as follows:

71.05(6)(b)28.a. a. Subject to subd. 28. am., an amount equal to one of the following per student for each year to which the claim relates: for taxable years beginning before January 1, 2009, not more than twice the average amount charged by the board of regents of the University of Wisconsin System at 4-year institutions for resident undergraduate academic fees for the most recent fall semester, as determined by the board of regents by September 1 of that semester; for taxable years beginning after December 31, 2008, and subject to subd. 28. am., $6,000.

71.05(6)(b)28.am. am. Notwithstanding subd. 28. a., for taxable years beginning after December 31, 2008, the department of revenue and the Board of Regents of the University of Wisconsin System shall continue making the calculation described under subd. 28. a. Notwithstanding subd. 28. a., once this calculation exceeds $6,000, the deduction for tuition expenses and mandatory student fees, as described in subd. 28. (intro.), shall be based on an amount equal to not more than twice the average amount charged by the Board of Regents of the University of Wisconsin System at 4-year institutions for resident undergraduate academic fees for the most recent fall semester, as determined by the Board of Regents by September 1 of that semester, per student for each year to which the claim relates, and the deduction that may be claimed under this subd. 28. am. first applies to taxable years beginning on the January 1 after the calculation of the Board of Regents, that must occur by September 1, exceeds $6,000.

71.05(6)(b)28.b. b. From the amount calculated under subd. 28. a. or am., if the claimant is single or married and filing as head of household and his or her federal adjusted gross income is more than $50,000 but not more than $60,000, subtract the product of the amount calculated under subd. 28. a. or am. and the value of a fraction, the denominator of which is $10,000 and the numerator of which is the difference between the claimant’s federal adjusted gross income and $50,000.

71.05(6)(b)28.c. c. From the amount calculated under subd. 28. a. or am., if the claimant is married and filing jointly and the claimant’s and his or her spouse’s federal adjusted gross income is more than $80,000 but not more than $100,000, subtract the product of the amount calculated under subd. 28. a. or am. and the value of a fraction, the denominator of which is $20,000 and the numerator of which is the difference between the claimant’s and his or her spouse’s federal adjusted gross income and $80,000.
