Should I specify that she can go to the grocery store and buy her food, but we don't cover fast food places and restaurants? It started when my brother got tired of food at home and wanted fast food himself, so we let her, but now he is on a g tube and won't be eating food.
Live-in personal attendants are paid overtime when they work more than 9 hours in a day or 45 hours in the 7-day work week. Federal:
Standard Meal Allowance Rates for 2015 income tax returns (in the continental U.S.): for adults and children in care...
$1.66 for each breakfast
$3.04 for each lunch or supper
$0.84 for each snack
That works out to $8.58 per day or $60.06 per week or $257.40 a month.
I would NOT agree to pay for fast food, that would be too expensive.
