Guest guest Posted March 5, 2011 Report Share Posted March 5, 2011 I believe the Disability Credit refers to the taxpayer, not dependents. SSent from my iPhone I too have wondered this... but never tried for fear of being audited. LOL!! We have a diagnosis of autism but recieve no state benefits as my husband makes just too much.

Guest guest Posted March 5, 2011 Report Share Posted March 5, 2011 There are a couple of exemptions you can take you just have to make sure you take the right one : i.e. One for disabled taxpayer, one for disabled child over 13, etc. and deductions that can be taken due to diagnosis.

Guest guest Posted March 5, 2011 Report Share Posted March 5, 2011 we've been audited several time cause back in the day when i was working, spent thousands on therapy and bio medical interventions, etc. was sort of a red flag to irs. however, our tax atty had us get a ltr from my son's developmental ped stating he is autistic and is in need of services etc. they accepted this. vicki Re: Disability credit I too have wondered this... but never tried for fear of being audited.

Guest guest Posted March 6, 2011 Report Share Posted March 6, 2011 Same here in GA. Although we got kicked off when we moved to VA. We're back in GA trying to get the NOW waiver. SSent from my iPhone It was my understanding that medicaid waiver does waive income requirements in every state. We just got my son on this in NY. We would never be approved based on income. In NY there is no waiting list for this. There is a ton of paperwork and it took about 6 months to go through multiple rounds of approvals. With medicaid, we have a secondary insurance that covers copays on meds and labs, dr and hospital visits that are in network, all therapy services that we would have to pay for out of pocket, diapers, and respite (which is babysitting.)

Guest guest Posted March 6, 2011 Report Share Posted March 6, 2011 There's also reimbursement on clothing, theraputic gudgets and swimming etc. $500 for a year. But if u have morethan $500 the service coordinator can put thru another agency.
