If they do NOT have any other worldwide gross income to be reported on their 1040 income tax return it would not do them any good to file a tax return just to claim you and your children on their income tax return.

But if they are required to file a tax return and all of the rules all met by them, you and your children to be their qualifying dependents on their income tax return this is possible.

You cannot claim a married person who files a joint return as a dependent unless the joint income tax return is only a claim for refund and there would be no tax liability for either spouse on separate returns.

You cannot claim a person as a dependent unless that person is a U.S. citizen, U.S. resident alien, U.S. national, or a resident of Canada or Mexico

You cannot claim a person as a dependent unless that person is your qualifying child or qualifying relative.

Qualifying child

· The child must be your son, daughter, stepchild, foster child, brother, sister, half brother, half sister, stepbrother, stepsister, or a descendant of any of them.

· The child must be (a) under age 19 at the end of the year and younger than you (or your spouse, if filing jointly), (b) under age 24 at the end of the year, a full-time student, and younger than you (or your spouse, if filing jointly), or (c) any age if permanently and totally disabled.

· The child must have lived with you for more than half of the year.2

· The child must not have provided more than half of his or her own support for the year.

· The child is not filing a joint return for the year (unless that return is filed only as a claim for refund).

· If the child meets the rules to be a qualifying child of more than one person, you must be the person entitled to claim the child as a qualifying child.

Qualifying relative dependent

· The person cannot be your qualifying child or the qualifying child of any other taxpayer.

· The person either (a) must be related to you in one of the ways listed under Relatives who do not have to live with you, or (b) must live with you all year as a member of your household2 (and your relationship must not violate local law).

· The person's gross income for the year must be less than $3,650.3

· You must provide more than half of the person's total support for the year.4

Can 2 people claim a child on their tax return?

In general, the answer is no. The IRS only allows one person to claim a child with a unique social security number on their taxes, and get the credits that go with the exemption. However, there are exceptions for children of divorced or separated parents. Only one parent may claim the social security number, but the custodial parent may use the child in order to claim the head of household status, to receive the earned income credit and to receive the credit for child and dependent care expenses - even if they did not claim the exemption for the child.
