Maximizing deductions is a way to get a large refund but can also raise red flags with the IRS, if the deductions dont make sense for the filer. Careful documentation is also needed.
The previous answer is NOT up to the normal sytandards of the submitter!
In US income tax, there is no such thing as "maximum" deductions. in fact there ia one base amount - frequently called trhe minimum deduction - allowed everyone, regardless of their income or position otherwise.
If your certified and supported tax deductible expenses add up to be GREATER than that (no maximum), then those may be used instead of the base amount.
THIS IS CALLED "ITEMIZING DEDUCTIONS".
Note, some deductions/expenses are different than others - and may only be allowed to offset that same or similar type of income.
