Best Answer

The person filing for the BK will have to present IRS and in most cases state tax documents. This may create a problem for the BK filer and for the person who claimed them as a dependent. IRS regulations for claiming dependents is very strict, the claiming of a non-relative, non-spouse or anyone who lives in the household when there is not a legally established relationship is not considered an eligible dependant. In such a situation as cited it is quite possible the BK will be dismissed and the IRS will initiate an audit of the tax filer.
