Tax Credit OK’d When
Babysitter Is A Relative
More Chattooga working
parents will benefit from re
cent changes in the tax laws,
according to Tom Carr, Ac
ting District Director of the
Internal Revenue Service in
Georgia.
"“At last you may be able
to pay grandma, mom or
another relative to keep your
child while you wort: and
count part of the expense as a
tax credit,” said Carr. "'This
change in tax law has been
long awaited by many work
ing parents and makes good
sense. In the past your “sit
ter' had to be a “'‘non-relative”
before you could take any tax
credit for child care
expenses.”’
Carr stated that the new
rule allows your “sitter' to be
a relative as long as he or she
is not your dependent or your
child under 19 years of age.
The credit Carr réferred to is
20 percent of what you paid
for child care but cannot go
over S4OO for one child or SBOO
for two or more children.
“Another credit available
for working parents is the
earned income credit,” said
