I moved home to care for my father. He pays me money which I use for both personal expenses and for food, etc. for him and I. Do I have to complete a tax return?

My income is less than $9600. Do I have to complete a tax return? If so, can I deduct from the money he gives me from my gross income?

I think you should talk with a CPA about this. It will cost some money to make one appointment, but it would be worth it not to worry about doing the right thing.
Good luck,
Carol
