I understand i just worded the issue wrong. I claimed them on my taxes last year because i was helping with them. But when i joined i didnt know about taxes and was told if i wanted to file kids which we were told if we didnt have kids not to worry about it. I didnt ask questions because once again was uneducated about taxes and thought it was different standards. So the question is if i didnt put them as dependent on my w-2 from the military can i still claim them because i was helping with them financially. And if not do i add them to my w-2 this year so that i can claim them next year
