If you're a dependent on someone else's income tax return can you claim dependents as well?

No. If you're being claimed as a dependent on someone else's tax return, then you can't claim dependents. There are two types of qualifying dependents. One is a Qualifying Child, which includes children, stepchildren, foster children, siblings, and their descendants (grandchild, niece, nephew). The other is Qualifying Relative, which includes those in the Qualifying Child category as well as others (parents, grandparents, aunts, uncles, in-laws, and any other person living all year in your household as long as the relationship doesn't violate local law).If you qualify for either category, then you're not eligible to claim your own dependents. Also, by being claimed as a dependent on someone else's tax return, you can't claim a personal exemption for yourself on your own tax return.
