Q: My wife does not need to file income tax return as she has no income, but the medical insurance policy for our daughter was purchased by her. As her husband, can I still qualify for tax relief?
A: Since your wife does not have any income, you may elect for joint assessment under your name and claim tax relief on the medical insurance policy for your daughter paid by your wife.
Wishing you plentiful tax savings!
