My parents get about $20,000 from soc security and medicare and they have no other income or securities. They had a savings account at the beginning to the year and used $6,000 of that for some home repair,and the rest for their cemetery plots, leaving only $1,000 left.
I deposited $30,000 throughout the year into their checking acct for them to pay all their medical, food, utilities, clothes, auto, etc. They own their home and pay mortgage, taxes, insurance, homeowners fees, and home repairs with this money, as well.
Can I claim them as dependents and add their medical expenses to my deductions? Does the fact that they own their home affect this?
