Why are you not allowed to hire a cook, painter or child carer?

[pjc50]

Not allowed to use pre-tax money for it. You can do it with post-tax money just fine.

[mschuster91]

Can't deduct the expenses.

[fnordpiglet]

Just the obligatory note this isn’t deductible in the US either.

[saiya-jin]

Child care is deductible in Switzerland, but maybe its also due o the fact its so horribly expensive.

[lotsofpulp]

Child care is deductible in the US too, for the vast majority of people.
