Hi,
I will be working 6 months in US on TN Status (Family all coming and are Canadian citizens maintaining residence in Canada).
Does the health related cost above 3% of income that one can write-off on ones Canadian income tax return also apply to health costs incurred while in the US ( I guess child care etc would be in the same boat)?
Thanks a lot,
Rick
Any Canadian write-offs for US health insurance etc?

Yes. US premiums, copays, etc are deductible like any other medical expense.
In general, there is no restriction on expenses being limited to physically being in canada.

After 20 years, I am severely cutting back on responses. Do not ask specifically for my help. There are a few others on this board that can answer most questions. All the best
