   For years to 3000 per year for years to collect you can deduct uncollectible nonbusiness debts up.

   First, you must determine that the debt is uncollectaible before you can deduct it. This can be dione if the debtor dies with zero estate, bankrupts or if you take legal action to collect and that action FAILS ( that does not mean you failed to pursue it. It means that you exhausted all legal remedies without collecting.

   Uncle Sam is not in the business of subsidizing bad debts. The law allows a deduction when the bad debt is bona fide.

   Also, you will want to pursue legal action to get your $10k back, instead of a total of $10k in deductions whicj in a 25% bracket is worth only $2500.

   Good luck

   PS: I know a guy named “Guido” who is good at collecting debts.
