State Benefits
Many states offer a state-specific deduction for
caregivers. These guidelines change every year, so
caregivers should contact their state to see what's
available for them.

Seek Assistance
There are many qualified professionals well versed
in caregiver tax benefits. The cost of utilizing
them may well save caregiver money in the long run.
There are many scenarios that can arise
with tax issues. Each family's situation will be unique
and have individual considerations. However, with the
rising cost of health care, it doesn't take long to
spend a good sum of money. A caregiver may want to look
into a Flexible Spending Account (FSA) or Health Savings
Account (HSA) to help cover such expenses. These funds
are becoming increasingly common among employers and
employees alike.
Caregivers will only gain from taking
advantage of tax benefits now, and knowing what's
available for them as a loved one requires more care in
years to come.
