I'm claiming my boyfriend as a dependent since he was a student last year and didn't have any income. He recently won $1258 from a slot machine and received a W-2G form. Can I claim this on my taxes since he is my dependent? Or does he have to file his own taxes because of these winnings? And since the minimum for slot machine winnings is $1200, do we pay taxes only on $58 or on the whole $1258? Thanks in advance for any advice!
