Tax Deduction for Children's Water Safety and Swimming Lessons.
This new bill allows taxpayers to deduct expenses for children's water safety and swimming lessons from their taxes. The aim is to encourage families to invest in life-saving skills while easing their financial burden. This could lead to more children learning how to be safe around water.
Key points
Expenses for water competency and water safety lessons can be treated as medical expenses for tax purposes.
The deduction limit is $500 per taxpayer, or $1,000 for joint filers or heads of household.
It applies to basic water safety and swimming instruction, not competitive training or equipment over $100 per item.
These changes will apply to tax years beginning after the bill becomes law.
