Deductions or credits
We have been supporting an adult son and his two children for all of 2019. He is disabled and filing disability claims with SSA, but so far, no results. They live in another state but we have paid his mortgage, utilities, insurance, as well as sending groceries and cash for fresh produce, clothing and gas, etc.
His tax professional told him he does not need to file a return nor does he qualify for EIC because he had no income last year but stated that we should be able to get some credits or deductions for assisting them. The boys are 17 and 10. Our son is 44, divorced and unable to work. He shares custody of the 10 year old, but the child's mother is not working either.
Where so I start if we can claim some of these expenses?
