Home school tax deductions

Postby douglisa » Tue Sep 23, 2008 6:54 am

Could you please tell me if home schoolers are allowed any tax deductions?
For instance, can I take him to a museum and have it deducted from taxes? How about books and materials?
TIA, Lisa

Look at it this way, with allowing the government to mess with the financial aspect of hs'ing, you're giving them more control. The more you get from them, the more you (and the rest of us) end up giving in return.
