Obama: Social Security Checks Will Stop When Debt Ceiling Is Reached. WASHINGTON -- President Barack Obama said Thursday that while it's bad members of Congress have allowed a government shutdown, it would be worse if they failed to increase the government's borrowing authority later this month.
Respite Care. Respite Care is short term care, usually only a few days at a time, provided for children who have significant needs. These may include developmental delays, mental health or behavioral issues, and special health care needs. Respite Care provides a needed break to parents and care givers. Payment for Respite Care is considered taxable income.
Child care costs are not claimed as a non-refundable tax credit, but as a deduction from income on line 214 of the personal tax return. A non-refundable tax credit is always at the lowest tax rate (except in Quebec), but a reduction of income would save tax at the taxpayer's marginal tax rate.
