I’m currently flying back and forth a little too often and will be doing so again this weekend….that’s my excuse for probably not posting tomorrow and for the fact that I’d filed this AARP blog about tax credit for family caregivers last month.

Fortunately–or unfortunately– I just found it. But it may be in time to help some this year or may be a reminder to check, next March, for whatever changes take place.*

Although Sally talks about calling the IRS 800 number help line, have you ever tried? Get a good book–or put on speaker phone and take care of other things while you wait. Once they connect with you, however, I’ve found them very helpful.
