So sorry for your son's health issues. You will need to tell us if he had more than $4500 of income (not counting any Social Security) in the tax year before he became disabled. If so, you will not be able to claim him as a dependent for 2023. If he earned or received less than that amount, you may be able to claim him as a qualified relative and get the $500 credit for other dependents. If you have paid medical expenses for him and you itemize deductions on your federal tax return, you can enter medical expenses you paid for him. If you had to pay someone to take care of him while you work, you may be able to use the child and dependent care credit.
