| I have a brand new client that formed a corporation in 2008 as an adult home care facility. So here is the kicker, she converted her personal residence into the senior home facility to the tune of over 80K. So they plan on living in part of the home and the rest that was converted will be for the seniors residing there. She will provide them with 24-hour care, meals, etc. So my question is since the business is a corporation and the house is her personal residence what do I do? Can the corporation rent part of her home? What about all of the money that was used to convert the house with ramps, ADA requirements, remodeling expenses? I tried searching and could not find anything that fit this particular situation. I'm at a loss on this one, any help would be greatly appreciated. | |

| Although this won't answer all of your questions, take a look at Adult Home Care Facility Deductions - and note that while the top part of the discussion is from 2007, if you jump down to the question from LisaC you'll be looking at something from last week; you might want to start with the newer stuff first. | |

| Your problem is that the client created a corporation...if a return has not been filed with the corporation you might suggest that she undo the corporation. Most people that run care homes, in my experience, form a single person LLC for liability purposes and file a Sch C. taxea | |

| Then there is the question of whether they live there for the convenience of their employer | |

| Taxea, why is there a problem with a corporation in this situation? | |
