How many should you claim to get the largest income tax return?

I assume that you mean how many exemptions you should claim when you fill out Form W-4 for your employer. Claiming zero (0) will result in the largest refund, but it also means they will be taking more out of your check each payday (smaller paycheck, but bigger tax refund).
ANSWER: Doesn't anybody ever wonder why it is that taxes you pay on income can lead to a refund at the end of the year? What other kind of tax operates in this fashion? If you are an employee and you believe your employer has the legal authority to withhold taxes on behalf why can't they just take out the exact amount you owe each week and leave it at that? Doesn't it strike anybody out there that this sort of scheme is like the shills who play three card Monte? Pay us some now and if you're lucky you'll get some or all of it back at the end of the year. Hell, if you know how to play the system it's actually possible to get back more than you paid in!! What a country!!!

No. My mother would not let me let you claim her on your income tax return. Even if I could claim my mother on my return I would not let you claim her on your return.

If you are interested in possibly claiming your own mother on your own return, I would recommend reading the Form 1040 instructions for line 6c, step 4. In a nutshell, if your mother lived with you all year, had minimal income, and you provided over half her support, you may be eligible to claim your mother on your return.
