My 8yr old son was diagnosed with epilepsy in 2017. Does this give me a tax benefit?

Sorry to hear that.

No. There's is no tax benefit to his epilepsy at his age. It may come into play at age 19 or 24. Hopefully, his unreimbursed medical expenses aren't enough to claim.

If you have any other details regarding this question, please feel free to post them in the comment section.

Or maybe age 13.
