CLIENT DATA:

Elizabeth H. Johnston

Age 21, SSN 808-80-8080, Single, no kids or dependents

Lives in an apartment at 4213 East 41 St, East Hempstead NY 10101

Graduated from college in May 2015 and went to work full time June 1, 2015.

Her employer began to pay for her health care June 1 and she had health care at college from January 1 to May 31. No one else claims her as a dependent since she has had no living family members since age 18 and has supported herself since then.

She aims to become President of the United States one day and wants $3 to go to the Presidential Campaign Fund. Even though she qualifies to contribute to a 401(k) plan at her new full time job she chose not to.

Elizabeth has never deducted any tuition expense nor has she ever utilized any tuition tax credits in prior years.
