Expert: Mike Wellman
Date: 1/3/2008
Subject: 22 yr. old as a dependent
Question
I did not claim my daughter on my taxes for 2006. She was working full time but still living at home. Could I have claimed her as a dependent for 2006? This year (2007) she is working part time and going to school part time. Can she be claimed as a dependent for 2007?
Thanks,
Doug
Answer
For 2006 you could not have because she was over 19 and not a full-time student.
For 2007, she must have been taking at least 12 hours per semester and she could not have provided more that 1/2 of her own support in order to claim her. She must also have resided with you or been away at school for at least six months and a day during the year.
