Get your taxes done using TurboTax

The SSI and SSDI goes on line 1 and line 2. Line 5 say to add lines 2-4 to equal the amount on line 1. It is for record keeping. This is a worksheet to help you figure it out. It is not a tax form, it is just a way to help you figure out if you paid more than half of the support.  Vacations are support, if you pay for it instead of the ABLE account.

 

I agree with what Diane said If the money remains in the account until Dec 31 - it is not used for support. A nuance -If the money was contributed by you or other's and removed the same year, it is not support provided by the child.

 

For you to claim your dependent, putting the SSI and SSDI into the ABLE account and having it stay there will help you use your expenses to claim support.

 

My apologies, I thought you were just asking about the ABLE account. I edited my first post. Let me give you:
