Hi Forensicrn76!
You may be able to claim your mother as a dependent under the qualifying relative rules. In general, she needs to have less than $4,700 of income (social security not included) and you would need to provide more than half of her support. It sounds like that may be the case here, but here is a link to the IRS rules for your reference: https://www.irs.gov/newsroom/an-overview-of-the-credit-for-other-dependents
I hope that helps!
