If my fiance moved in with me at end of 2015 and stayed with me through July of 2016, can I claim him? he was unemployed that whole time and passed away July 5, 2016

 

Get your taxes done using TurboTax

No you cannot claim him as a dependent on your 2016 tax return.  To claim a non-relative as a dependent under the Qualifying Relative rules they must live in your household for the entire year.
