client received ssdi distribution of 50,000 from which 6000 was deducted for attorney fees.  Additionally 2000 and 23800 were for previous years.  This is causing a large premium tax credit balance due.  Taxable income for the year was 700.  If I show the ss benefits net of the atty fees. it is reduced by over 500.  Can I do this and attach a note?

I looked online and one solution was to include Atty Fees as a negative Miscellaneous Income.  Main reason I am asking..

How reliable/authoritative is "I looked online"?

The more I know the more I don’t know.
