HI!! I want to jump on this subject real quick, hope you guys don't mind!
So, is the answer that: we can't have a dog or cat daycare and be able to claim it as a business?
OR
just that we can't claim the use of our homes for the care.
I do kitten rescue/fostering/"babysitting" for others AND I charge and ave a lot of expenses such as food, toys, furniture and medications NOT paid for by owners or rescues. Plus, My WHOLE house is a daycare! 😄
Can I not claim this as a business? Because t is as is the individual with a doggy daycare I believe.
and if not, can we just say "daycare" and be non specific and claim or honest costs and deductions without having to SAY what we care for?
Thank you!!
You can have the daycare of the animals as a business. And you can claim the portion of your home for the daycare facility. You just cannot claim any of the grounds outside of the home for depreciation or the square footage used for the business.
