Can you claim expenses again taxes you pay?

Hi there,

I am just looking for information. My sister is 81, has Alzheimer's. I am her POA. I use her income to pay for carers. Is there any way I can claim part of this expense against her taxes taken off at source?

I live in Canada and that is what we do here. I don't know if it is the same in UK.

    Hey there @enelson and a belated welcome to the community.

    I'm afraid I'm not sure if that's possible, the UK benefits system is a bit of a labyrinth, so your best bet would be to contact the DWP or HMRC.

    I'll tag your question as unanswered and hopefully a community member may be able to help.
