  • If anyone here has done this before or knows if this can be done please share...I was wondering if my boyfriend could claim my child on his taxes. We both lived in his household and he does in fact support us 100% since I have not worked in over a year. I looked it up on the IRS website, and it's pretty confusing...they say yes and no, so who's really knows!!  laugh_out_loud........any input would be great!  Thanks guys!

  • He can claim both you and her, and he will be entitled to the earned income credit as long as no one else claims you or her, BUT i forget what it is claimed under.. whether it is "step child" or something around in that area.

  • i recall something as "dependent under a certain age" but in the block as "step child"

  • Thanks....I don't think he would be able to claim me because I did file a return already...it was just for school tuition, but I still got a tax return for going to school...but I didn't claim my daughter on it since there was no earned income it woulda been a waste..........

  • He can claim head of household and her, if he took care of her and provided for her the year, yes he can.. even if he only did for a little as 6 months he can, as long as no one else claims her

  • I have been doing taxes for about 30 years and imagination is right....he can claim your child, child care credit and he can claim you as a dependent.  All he has to do is check the box.  A person may work and still be dependent, but only one person may claim the earned income credit.  Earned income was designed to help the lower paying workers.....or the poor.  As of this year you can claim three children and the highest amount you can receive for that is less than 6,000, however you to claim that you have to make in a range between 7,999 and 11,999 I believe.  There are plenty of credits but earned income credit is one that is monetary as well as child care credit and child tax credit.  If you need a link just send me a pm and I would be more than happy to reply or go to www.irs.gov and search, new tax credits for 2009 filings. wink

  • Thank you Debra, i did taxes on the side for people for a few years, not as any kind of professional, just as favors for alot of people i knew, mostly easy tax forms like 1040, 1040A's and EZ-Forms, couple of other types of exteneded forms, but i did learn alot, just been a while for me.

  • dazz....since you are dispensing free tax advice...hahaha.  Can I take my gambling losses off my net?  Do I have to itemize to do it?

  • When it comes to gambling i will get back to you in a few...not many people report, boy you are a honest one!

  • I don't think he can get the earned income credit, but maybe the child tax credit...I'm notsure if he'll be able to claim me because I just filed my school forms for a tax refund.....but that is all I filed for...I can no income at all this year..................

  • I always suggest claim losses against wins, keep it even, theres something that i do know, and i see Debra knows it too.. living in Vegas...i learned

  • satan, how did you file taxes if you didnt have any income tax? and yes drsypce you have to itemize; also when it comes to our boyfriend clamiing you, you must look at the test for dependency....and he can get the child tax credit.......and earned income credit doesnt have to be in that range but the higher you make the less you get from eic, and there is a test for that also, so my advice go to the irs.gov and look under the tests for dependancy rules and also it depends on what state you are from...some consider you common law marriage but as far as the earned income credit..if you man makes over 40,000 grand i think thats a down deal...looks like he has some tax liability and he is trying to reduce that....send me a pm.....@satan or anyone else i will do it as a courtesy and since I am not doing your taxes you cant sue me!  But i will give your the real deal and documentation because I am a dazzling Debra!

  • Okay here are some of your questions answered by the IRS!


    Topic 419 - Gambling Income and Losses

    The following rules apply to casual gamblers. Gambling winnings are fully taxable and must be reported on your tax return. You must file Form 1040 (PDF) and include all of your winnings. Gambling income includes, but is not limited to, winnings from lotteries, raffles, horse races, and casinos. It includes cash winnings and also the fair market value of prizes such as cars and trips. For additional information, refer to Publication 525, Taxable and Nontaxable Income.

    A payer is required to issue you a Form W-2G (PDF) if you receive certain gambling winnings or if you have any gambling winnings subject to Federal income tax withholding. All gambling winnings must be reported, including winnings` that are not subject to withholding. In addition, you may be required to pay an estimated tax on your gambling winnings. For information on withholding on gambling winnings, refer to Publication 505, Tax Withholding and Estimated Tax.

    You may deduct gambling losses only if you itemize deductions. Claim your gambling losses as a miscellaneous deduction that is not subject to the 2% limit on Form 1040, Schedule A (PDF). However, the amount of losses you deduct may not be more than the amount of gambling income reported on your return. It is important to keep an accurate diary or similar record of your gambling winnings and losses. To deduct your losses, you must be able to provide receipts, tickets, statements or other records that show the amount of both your winnings and losses. Refer to Publication 529, Miscellaneous Deductions, for more information.

    2009 Tax Year
    New for tax year 2009: The amount of EITC increased for workers with a third qualifying child* and the rules changed for determining who is a qualifying child.

    Earned Income and adjusted gross income (AGI) must each be less than:

    $43,279 ($48,279 married filing jointly) with three or more qualifying children
    $40,295 ($45,295 married filing jointly) with two qualifying children
    $35,463 ($40,463 married filing jointly) with one qualifying child
    $13,440 ($18,440 married filing jointly) with no qualifying children
    Tax Year 2009 maximum credit:

    $5,657 with three or more qualifying children
    $5,028 with two qualifying children
    $3,043 with one qualifying child
    $457 with no qualifying children
    The Fostering Connections to Success and Increasing Adoptions Act of 2008 changed the uniform definition of a child. Now, a "qualifying child" must:


    Be younger than the taxpayer claiming that child unless the child is disabled and
    Not have filed a joint return except to claim a refund
    It also added a new Parent AGI rule. If the same child is a qualifying child of a parent and another relative, the person who is not the parent can claim the child only if their AGI is higher than the AGI of any parent of the child.

    *The American Recovery and Reinvestment Act (ARRA) provides a temporary increase in EITC and expands the credit for workers with three or more qualifying children. These changes are temporary and apply to 2009 and 2010 tax years.

    For more information on whether a child qualifies you for the EITC, see Publication 596, Chapter 2, Rules If You Have a Qualifying Child.

    Investment income must be $3,100 or less for the year.

    The maximum Advance EITC workers can receive from their employers is $1,826.




     


  • Since they arent married, wouldn't or couldn't he file as head of household, and recieve the higher amount of credit?
    Since he is the only one providing income
    Has that amount changed?

  • Everybody situation is different and this may affect where you live, as far as you filing a tax return, you had to have income to file satanstuff.  How did you file an income tax with no income if that is what I read..i may have missed something.  In some states the rules are different when you are filing taxes and living together...common law marriage.  I will try to answer your questions and if i cant i know who can..the IRS...lol grin

  • Yes of course.  Unless she worked i dont know how she filed unless she had some liability somewhere and she needed to use the education credit to get rid of that.  Someone can work and still be claimed as a dependent.  On the tax forms it asked if you can be claimed as a dependent and people are confused about that....it wont stop you from getting your money it is that both of you cant get the same credits.  You can be living with someone and depending on the test ...can get earrned income credit depending on the test question and answer.  Lots of rules, every situation is different.

  • I don't know how I got a tax return...maybe it's something new?? All I know is I got a  1098-T form in the mail from my school...I went on turbo tax and filled out exactly what was on the form and I put down NO W-2's and a $ amount popped up and said that's what I'll be getting back......I guess they are counting my tuition as taxable money?? I know they recieved almost 11 thousand from my student loans........

  • Its part of the american recovery tax, I believe, I havent come across one but thats great but your boyfriend can claim you , you have to pm me and I will clue you in, you know I have a business and I don't want people to know that I am giving you free tax information..lol just kidding just pm and I will give you the info from the irs you need to know so that way it is in writing from the Big Boys of Taxes alias IRS. cheesy


  • I don't know how I got a tax return...maybe it's something new?? All I know is I got a  1098-T form in the mail from my school...I went on turbo tax and filled out exactly what was on the form and I put down NO W-2's and a $ amount popped up and said that's what I'll be getting back......I guess they are counting my tuition as taxable money?? I know they recieved almost 11 thousand from my student loans........
    I got one too satan...i have not even attempted to do my taxes yet. But your getting money back??? Am i understanding this right?
  • Yep.....A pretty decent amount too. From what I could gather on turbotax, they counted the money the school recieved from my student loans as taxable income....I could be wrong, but that's what it looks like!

  • Goody goody gum drops i  can't wait to do mine now!!!

    Lips
  • i need a creative way to write off about 50,000 grand of untaxed income...
    no kids, no school, already taken the win/loss deduction
    anything??  i did write off my roomate as a dependant on year.  i met all the criteria.
    got her to move too...hehe
    ahhhhhh...taxes...not funny  embarrassed embarrassed embarrassed

  • ahhh......so you can claim people who just live with you and are not related?!

  • Yes you can do whatever floats your boat, but if it is not right you take the chance on getting audited.  There are a lot of things you can write off, untaxed income...wow.  As far as the student loan money that is taxable I am looking in that....take the money and run.  It is part of the Stimulus package and Education recovery act..so the stimulus money is being used to help students and people are complaining about the stimulus and dont really know who it helps since they arent getting a piece of the pie, but look you did.

  • Thank you so much for your time....you have been increadibly helpful...now I wonder that since I claimed my school stuff if that means I just screwed it up for my biyfriend claiming me...[woulda got alot more back if he claimed me instead] A neighbor was telling me today that if I claimed for just school purposes that he can still claim me under head of household...Not really sure if thats true, but he did say his daughter who's 22 and is away at college files here taxes every year for her part time job, and he still claims her also because he's supporting her finacially to a certain degree.......

  • if you claimed yourself...nobody else can claim you. You can file taxes and still get a refund but do not claim yourself on the return.

    All the claiming means that somebody takes advantage of the $3650 deduction. If you do..it is gone.

    Check your return if you marked the box, if not, your boyfriend can claim you even you got a refund.

  • Hey girl,

    He can claim her for sure.  Since you already filed, you had to have claimed yourself.  Now you just know for next year. 

    I LOVE about TurboTax, I have been doing my own taxes thru them for over 10 years.  I usually do long form and input different scenario's to see how hard I want to actually look for specific receipts.  They are almost error proof, they are great.

    GOOD LUCK HUN!

  • ^5 Shelli you are right he can claim her.  You can also amend your return Satan and say that someone is claiming you as a dependent but you cant do amendents yet, I believe March 15, 2010.  If your boyfriendclaimed you he can use part of your refund to right off his tax liability..you lose then because if his liability is high your money is gone girlfriend...you did the right thing ..no biggie...and when he files his return he doesnt have to check the box that someone has claimed him as a dependent because YOU didnt claim HIM!  People get confused on that rule.  Say for instance, my daughter works, but I can still claim her a a dependent and she is an adult, you have to know the rules and if you are unsure you have to ask because i you don't know what you are doing you will be paddling up the creek without an oar!  I have doing taxes so long that I am proud to say that I have never had a client that wasnt happy with me, I tell you people love my work so much that they fedex their info to me and I am happy to serve them.....I am not expensive nor do I need any new clients, my clients fee .....well 25.00 of every return is going to Haiti.  ONE LOVE


  • Yes you can do whatever floats your boat, but if it is not right you take the chance on getting audited.  There are a lot of things you can write off, untaxed income...wow.  As far as the student loan money that is taxable I am looking in that....take the money and run.  It is part of the Stimulus package and Education recovery act..so the stimulus money is being used to help students and people are complaining about the stimulus and dont really know who it helps since they arent getting a piece of the pie, but look you did.


    listen ms irs...who said it wasn't right???  according to publication 525 it had to meet 5 criteria, which i meet everyone of them. 
    i never got audited for that.  there are lots of things that can be written off if people take some time and look into it.
  • YES 100% HE CAN CLAIM HER..

    this is my line of business

  • Nalgenie, Ms IRS huh....whatever floats your boat, dont get it twisted there is always a chance to get audited.  When you a post a question in the open forum you are bound to get a response that ruffles your feather and to call me Ms IRS is really cute.  I thank you for the complement, but I am just the opposite of Ms IRS, I try to get the most back and out of the IRS.....and my boat is still floating, matter of fact I am working on getting a yacht and perhaps I may be called Ms got a yacht! cool

  • hehehe...sorry  ;D grin grin

    i have been audited every 5 years for the last 15 years.  its getting old.  its not you...just the word TAX that makes my skin crawl  ;D  touchy subject for me.

    i truly hope you get your yacht...you will look dazzlling on it

          cool  Nal

  • Thanks Nalgene, if you get audited..holla!  Anyway check into some things with my constiuents, and they are many things you can write off this years so you should be great..just dont want those boys messing with you Nal....if you like i can see you a pm so that you can get that nasty tax off off you.  Just kidding about the yacht, but I am know that I have a mansion waiting on me. wink 

  • thanks..that would be great

    Nal

  • nalgenie you can write off so, so so, many things this year, I know you will come out shining and grinning from ear to ear just pm me and I will give you some advice but you can't sue me this is charitable advice....i am about getting my money too but i will do it for a lcber!  Holla back! wink

  • The IRS and my state have been harassing me for year.
