2FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
1. Must I be a registered caregiver to receive the shared care tax credit?
Yes. If you meet all other requirements, you may qualify for the tax credit if you register as a shared care member.
To register with the Division of Senior and Disability Services call 573-751-4842.
2. Do I have to be in Missouri caring for the care recipient a consecutive six (6) months to receive the tax credit?
No. The law provides more than six (6) months per tax year requirement. If the total time frame caring for the elderly
care received is six (6) months in the aggregate, you still qualify for the tax credit.
3. I provided care for my mother half of the year, but I am not currently a Missouri resident. Do I still qualify for
the credit?
Yes. If you have a Missouri tax liability and you met all of the requirements listed on the previous page; you may still
qualify for the shared care tax credit.
4. What is considered when determining whether or not the care recipient is incapable of living alone?
A physician or a Division of Senior and Disability Services Social Service Worker must determine whether or not the
care recipient is capable of living alone. The physician or counselor must provide a description of the care recipient’s
physical or mental condition, which prevents the recipient from living alone. The physician or social service worker
must also describe the necessary treatment or care needed for the care recipient.
5. Is the shared care tax credit refundable?
No. The credit is the amount of your Missouri tax liability or $500, whichever is less. If your Missouri tax liability is
$200, you will receive a credit of $200. The remaining $300 is not refundable.
6. If I receive Medicaid, am I eligible for the credit?
No. If you receive Medicaid funded home and community based services, you are not eligible for the tax credit.
If you receive Medicare, you may qualify for the credit.
