520 _aThis paper derives optimal income tax and human capital policies in a life cycle model with risky human capital. The government faces asymmetric information regarding agents' ability, its evolution, and labor supply. When the wage elasticity with respect to ability is increasing in human capital, the optimal subsidy involves less than full deductibility of human capital expenses on the tax base and falls with age. Incomecontingent loans or a deferred deductibility scheme can implement the optimum. Numerical results suggest that full deductibility of expenses and that simple linear age-dependent policies perform very well.
