I have been made my mother's legal guardian by the courts after she was removed from my brother's care by adult protective services. She has her own estate which I am conservator of. I will submit a financial statement annually for the approval of the courts and my siblings. I am also guardian of my nephew, the above mentioned brother's son. He has his own social security income. I spend most of my time lately caring for them both, running them to doctors and schools. I have had to take an unpaid leave from work for several months to deal with all of this. My question is, is it legal and proper to charge rent and/or caregiving to their estates? I don't want to take advantage of course, but they are living with me and it is a full time job taking care of them! Thanks for your help.
This can't be right!
