Is There a Tax Benefit of Dyslexia?

The IRS has defined dyslexia and ADHD as medical conditions. If properly documented, the many expenses of providing diagnosed children with the support they need to learn can be deducted as medical expenses.

These deductions may include tuition, lodging, meals and travel if a special school requires living away from home, and private tutoring.
