What it does

The Credit for Caring Act of 2025 would create a new tax credit for working family caregivers who pay for care-related expenses for a qualified care recipient. Eligible caregivers—those with earned income over $7,500 who incur qualified expenses for a spouse, relative, or other closely related individual with long-term care needs—could claim a credit equal to 30% of expenses exceeding $2,000, up to a maximum of $5,000 per year, adjusted for inflation. The credit phases out for higher incomes, requires documentation and identification of the care recipient and certifying practitioner, and applies to taxable years beginning after 2024.
