Deductions & credits

Yes, the rules for claiming Medical Expenses haven't changed since the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act of 2017 (effective in 2018).

 

• The IRS allows all taxpayers to deduct their qualified unreimbursed medical care expenses (for themselves or their dependents) that exceed 7.5% of their adjusted gross income.
 

• You must itemize your deductions on IRS Schedule A in order to deduct your medical expenses.

Same for Education Expenses. If someone qualifies as your dependent, you can claim  their Education Expenses on your return.
