| Medicaid and estate planning I am paying an attorney for advice about qualifying for Medicaid and the COPES program in Washington state (http://209.85.173.132/search?q=cache...ient=firefox-a) and to draft financial powers of attorney, wills, health care directives for my wife and me. To what extent would these fees be deductible? Is there any specific wording that the bill or receipt should contain? Thanks -- << ------------------------------------------------------- > << The foregoing was not intended or written to be used, > << nor can it used, for the purpose of avoiding penalties > << that may be imposed upon the taxpayer. > << > << The Charter and the Guidelines for submitting posts > << to this newsgroup as well as our anti-spamming policy > << are at www.asktax.org. > << Copyright (2007) - All rights reserved. > << ------------------------------------------------------- > |
