The Credit for Caring Act: Financial Relief for Family Caregivers & How We Can Help.
Caring for a loved one is an act of deep commitment, but it can also be overwhelming, physically, emotionally, and financially. Millions of Americans provide unpaid care for aging parents, spouses, and loved ones, often juggling jobs, personal responsibilities, and caregiving duties.
To help alleviate the financial burden, Congress has reintroduced the bipartisan Credit for Caring Act, which could provide much-needed relief to eligible working caregivers.
What Is the Credit for Caring Act?
This proposed legislation would offer tax credits to caregivers to help cover essential expenses, including:
Home modifications to improve accessibility
Respite care services to provide relief for caregivers
Medical supplies and assistive technology
Transportation for medical visits and caregiving duties
With over 53 million Americans serving as unpaid caregivers, this act recognizes the financial strain they endure and seeks to provide financial relief to keep caregiving sustainable.
