Family Member(s) Permitted to Work <br />SAHA must verify that the expenses claimed actually enable a family member, or members, <br />(including the person with disabilities) to work. <br />SAHA Policv <br />SAHA will request third -party verification from a licensed medical professional <br />indicating that the person with disabilities requires attendant care or an auxiliary <br />apparatus to be employed, or that the attendant care or auxiliary apparatus enables <br />another family member, or members, to work (See 6-II.E.). This documentation may be <br />provided by the family. <br />If third -party verification has been attempted and is either unavailable or proves <br />unsuccessful, the family must certify that the disability assistance expense frees a family <br />member, or members (possibly including the family member receiving the assistance), to <br />work. <br />Unreimbursed Expenses <br />To be eligible for the disability expenses deduction, the costs must not be reimbursed by another <br />source. <br />SAHA Policv <br />The family will be required to certify that attendant care or auxiliary apparatus expenses <br />are not paid by or reimbursed to the family from any source. <br />7-IV.D.
