No, you can’t claim a person as a dependent unless that person is a U.S. citizen,
U.S. resident alien, U.S. national, or a resident of Canada or Mexico.
A U.S. National is defined as U.S. national who, although not a U.S. citizen, owes his other allegiance to the United States. U.S. nationals include American Samoans and Northern Islanders who chose to become U.S.nationals instead of U.S. citizens.
