You are not allowed to claim a child on your return if the child does not live with you and if you do not provide over half of their support. They must also be your child or related to you in certain ways. If all of these tests are not met, then you are not allowed to claim the child and if you do, you will have your refund taken and if they find out later you will also pay penalties and interest. More penalties can be placed on you that eliminate you from receiving any earned income credit for up to 10 years.

Residency is one of the requirements to claim a dependent.
