If they did not pay for more than half their own support, you will be able to claim them as a dependent. The restriction on income applies if the dependents do not live with you year round. Time spent away from home is considered a temporary living arrangement and counts as living at home for tax purposes. Therefore, you will want to mark that the children lived with you year round.
