Thank you for your reply! I finally found out why I was stuck. There was an option I did not check, "Paid for more than half of their living expenses and other support ". That explained why I did not have problems in previous years. Your input that the dependent can't support herself more than half was useful. I'll keep this in mind for the next year and will talk to a tax adviser. Thanks again and have a good one! Akatsnel.
