?

Myself, my wife and my daughter moved into a 5 bedroom home with my wife's friend and her 2-year old son. I discovered very quickly that this friend of hers cannot pay her share of rent/utilities. She only works a couple of hours a day 2 days a week, claims she cannot find an arrangement for someone to watch her 2 year old so she can work more hours and make more money (how convenient for her).

I have reluctantly paid her share of all bills for 6 months during the 2015 year, totaling over $5000. In exchange, I have requested she help my wife in any way with the care of my daughter (baby sitting, rides to/from doctors appts. when I'm at work, etc.).

I am filing as Head of Household. Can I somehow claim this situation under the child & dependent care credit in any way? Whether it be her as a daycare provider for my daughter or me as a provider for her son? Anything?

Thanks in advance.

Seems like only 1 or 2 of the most recent questions remain posted in some sections (like Astronomy & Space), while all other questions less than 3 days old just disappear. I can find the missing ones that I've answered through the "my answers" list in my profile, but the others are nowhere to be found.

Unless there is some kind of super-secret settings link I'm unaware of, it's not an issue with my settings.

I'm on the "Answer" list, not the "Discover" list.

The questions aren't disappearing because a best answer was selected.

The questions aren't disappearing because they're being reported as violations (unless someone has literally spent the last 3 days straight doing this 24/7 as every question pops up), and...

I have all of the right selections made in every "customize feed" & settings link I can find on the entire site.

Still nothing. Everything was fine until 2 or 3 days ago...
