I take care of my grandfather and I provide for him house and food and all.
However, I'm not sure what is consider as taxable income? He received S.S. and his pension. However, how can I tell if his pension is taxable income or not taxable?
Thank you
You'll need to sign in or create an account to connect with an expert.
His Social Security does not "count" but if the pension is more than $4700 for the year, you cannot claim him as a dependent. And whether the pension is taxable or not is not relevant.
IRS interview to help determine who can be claimed:
