    Hi All

    Just have a question in relation to the above tax credit.

    My spouse was at the main caretaker to our 2 kids in 2018.


    However , spouse was also in college in 2018 doing a full time course.


    In this scenario ,can the Home Carer credit still be claimed ?



    Thanks in advance

    Yes so long as you are jointly assessed and your spouse is caring for a dependent person.

    Thanks , that is good to know , as spouse has college fees as well so thought there may be some restriction claiming for both.
