Re: Grandma going to nursing home

I'm unclear what you mean by "repercussions". If you are referring to a gift? She could gift you an amount of money and provided it does not exceed proscribed amounts be gifted tax-free. I would advise that the nature of your question could best be answered by consulting personally with an attorney so that your particular needs can be best structured for your grandmother's benefit.
