Where do I claim that doesn’t require my mom to pay but she claim out of pocket medical expenses
I was the primary caregiver for my terminally ill father for 6 months in 2025 and as insurance and hospice did not help much and since he needed 24-ht care and supervision before he passed, I was not working my normal job. My parents paid me around 7200 total (about 1200 a month) out of their pocket to make up for my lost income. When I put this under “other income “ it doesn’t show up as earned income on deductions and credits but it was very much earned. What should I do about this while making my moms life (and mine as I do their taxes) easier and she can claim out of pocket medical expenses but not have to pay employee taxes or anything like that?

Your subject line is different than your other one though, so I wonder if you meant to ask a different question. If so, feel free to respond here or ask it again.
