My sister watches my children in the daycare center she runs out of her house. Can I still take advantage of the child and dependent care tax credit?
Almost any type of care qualifies for the credit, regardless of whether it is provided in your home, the residence of a care provider, or at a daycare center or child-care facility. However, no credit is allowed for the expense of sending a child or another dependent to an overnight camp. In addition, the caretaker cannot be someone you can claim as your dependent, or a son or daughter under age 19 at the end of the year.
