Can I get some tax relief from caring for my boyfriends children? |
We had his kids stay with us for the summer this year and their mother payed us no support. We had them for three months and had to pay child care costs of course. I love his children dearly, but the situation put us into a serious financial mess and we are still trying to keep our head above water because we weren't financially equipped to take them on with no support. I know he can't claim them as a dependant - we didn't have them long enough, but is there some releif from paying their childcare if we have the receipts? I'll take any help I can get. Sorry, you must have custody for more than 6 months to take credit for daycare expenses. Your bf could discuss sharing claiming the exemptions of the children so he has some tax relief. She would have to sign form 8332, which gives him permission to claim 1 or more. He could also take it to court to get support during the summer or the right to share the personal exemption. Source(s): Tax professional. No only he can claim them since you are not married. only if they are legally yours can you NO sorry unless his wife will let him claim them you will not be able to get any kind of tax deduction No, sorry, you must be able to claim them as dependants to get the child care and child credits. Sorry, I don't think you can claim anything on your taxes. However, depending on what the agreement was between your bf and the mother of the kids, you may be able to take legal action against her to recoup some of the money she should have been paying. |
