Q: As a stepchild, can I claim tax relief for medical expenses incurred for my stepfather?
A: No. Tax relief for parents' medical expenses is only applicable for biological or legally adoptive parents. It does not extend to step-parents. Therefore, medical expenses incurred for your stepfather do not qualify for this tax relief.
Wishing you plentiful tax savings!
