Yes, if you paid your grandfather to watch your child then you will be able to claim Child and Dependent Care Credit if you met all the qualifications. You have to enter your grandfather's information in the childcare provider section.
The person filing the last tax return for your grandfather will have to include the payments as taxable income on your grandfather's last return.
Please follow these steps to enter your child care:
- Login to your TurboTax Account
- Click on the Search box on the top and type “child care”
- Click on “Jump to child care”
My deepest sympathies for the loss of your grandfather.
