Can I claim this loss on my income tax?

We had to evacuate for hurricane rita. You are suppose to turn the electricity off before you leave. So we did…we were gone for 3 days and all the food in the fridge and deep freeze was lost. I figure the value at around $300. I put this down when I e-filed my return. If it is not acceptable will it slow down my refund?

  1. I think they have special forms this year for hurricane victims. But if u already did it and if they won’t except it then they will send u something in the mail saying why they didn’t but it should not slow down ur refund.
