Disabilities That Qualify for the Disab
As a continuation of the previous four disability sections from Form 2201, the Disability Tax Credit Certificate, this article will discuss the remaining four sections. The following disability sections include: elimination, feeding, dressing, and performing the mental functions of everyday living.
Qualifying for Disability Tax Credit for Elimination Section Firstly, a patient can qualify for the elimination section if they personally manage their elimination, and this takes an inordinate amount of time to do so. An inordinate amount of time is considered to be three times the time it would take an average person to do it who does not have this impairment.
Qualifying for Disability Tax Credit for Feeding Section With regards to feeding, this section does not include identifying, shopping, or procuring food. However, feeding oneself does include preparing the food. These preparations are not inclusive to the time associated to dietary restrictions or regime, even when these are required due to an illness or health condition. Feeding devices include modified utensils.
Qualifying for Disability Tax Credit for Dressing Impairments These practitioners, both medical doctors and occupational therapists, are also qualified for patients with dressing impairments. With regards to dressing oneself, this does not include identifying, finding, shopping, or procuring clothing. Devices to assist individuals in dressing themself includes buttonhooks, long-handled shoehorns, grab rails, and safety pulls.
Qualifying for Disability Tax Credit for Mental Functions Lastly, the disability section entitled performing the mental functions necessary for everyday life includes medical doctors or psychologists as qualified practitioners. Mental functions required for everyday life include adaptive functioning, memory, problem solving, goal setting, and judgment. Examples of adaptive functioning include having the abilities related to self-care, healthy and safety, initiating and responding to social interactions, and simple transactions.
