In general, when a doctor's determination is required, e.g. blindness and long-term care, I'd get a letter and keep it with my records.

| Proof of Disability What IRS directive states what you need to prove a person is disabled. I have a client who sez her 40 year old son suffers from schizophrenia. I know that she can claim HOH if the son is permanently disabled. She provided over 50% of his support and he lives with her. He made a little too much to be claimed as a dependent and had to file a return. I read about credit for the disabled and it states that you have to have proof from a doctor to take this credit. Does she need proof of the disability from a doctor in case she is ever audited.
