If your child lived with you but you did not claim it as a dependent you can still file head of household. You have to list the child's name and social security number on your return.
The IRS won't tell you that. If you believe that no one was entitled to claim you as a dependent, file a paper income tax return and take your own exemption. The IRS will sort it out. If you were a full-time student for any part of five months last year and lived with someone who was supporting you, that person is probably entitled to take you as a dependent on their tax return. If you made less than $3,400 last year and someone else provided over 1/2 of your support, you were their dependent.
depends upon the income of the "disabled non-relative housemate" (<$3,700.); citizenship of same; dependent taxpayer test; lived with you ALL year????
Yes You can claim her as a dependent if you meet all of the following criteria: 1. She had less than $3,400 in gross income for the year. 2. She lived in your home the entire year. 3. You provided over half her support. 4. The relationship between the two of you does not violate local law.
There are a set of rules in the tax instructions for determining whether or not someone qualifies as your dependent. They have to do mainly with whether they lived with you or not, and whether you contributed more than 50% of their support or not, and whether they had income of their own (and how much). If they qualify, then yes you can claim them.
You can only claim a runaway as a tax dependent if they meet the IRS rules for qualifying relatives, which includes providing over half of the individual's support for the year and the individual having lived with you for the entire year. If these conditions are met, you may be able to claim them as a dependent. It is recommended to consult with a tax professional for specific guidance.

According to IRS rules, only the person who physically supported the child for more than 50% of the year can claim the child as a dependent. Financial support does not count. If the child lived with you for at least 183 out of 365 days during the tax year, you can claim him/her as a dependent. If the child stayed with you less than that, you cannot.

Maybe. If your boyfriend lived with you the entire year, and there is no local law against your cohabitation, and his income was less that $3,500 (in 2008), and you provided over half of his total support for the year, you may claim him as your dependent. If your grandchild lived with you over 1/2 the year, and was under age 19 on December 31, or under age 24 and a full-time student, or any age and permanently and totally disabled, and you provided over 1/2 of his or her support for the year, you may claim him as your dependent.
