You can claim as many as you actually have, according to the rules on what is considered a dependent.
You can claim as many dependants you can prove that you did support. However you can only claim the EIC(Earned Income Credit) on up to 3 qualify children.
Yes. And if you pay more in sales taxes than state income taxes, you can use that
Yes this absolutely allowed and actually proper..and the way the calculation of the W-4 is supposed to be done. Many people, for many reasons, have financial situations where the withholding for the number of dependents they will have a right to claim results in much more tax being estimated than is needed....they get a large refund. The larger number on the W-4 can prevent this.
If you have paid for more than half of their support and they do not claim themselves on their taxes, I believe you can claim them as long as you have documentation to prove it.
yes as long as you are not a minor and you provided more than half of her financial support for the year in which you are filing taxes

Your income is not relevant to how many dependents you can claim...having a right to claim those you do is all....can't claim any more than that...and considering the information you provide on each is easily computer matched...and each is worth maybe $750 or so...not something to get too tricky with.

Unless you are providing more than half of a person's support, you can not claim them on your taxes. If a person is surviving on public assistance, and supporting themselves from that they can not be claimed on taxes.

First you need to figure out if they are your dependents--living with you, you provide more than 50% of their support, and so on. If you can claim the children, you may have some deductions.

yes.
The number of exemptions that you claim affects the amount of taxes that you will pay by lowering them. That is if the exemptions are claimed when you file your taxes. The more exemptions that you claim on your paycheck, the more you money you receive in your pay each week, rather than having more in your tax refund.
The laws regarding claiming of dependents are complicated. Generally, a person who relies on you as their chief means of support (more than half) can be claimed as a dependent.
