So wat does that mean? can you claim your girlfriends non blood related who has an income of less than 4,000 in fact made less than 2,000 and have lived with my only under my support all year long is legal ? Because my friend have been claiming their girlfriends child since she was born in 2015 but He accidentally claimed her as his niece but has no red flags or problems from the IRS...,well He submitted his federal return for 2020 accidentally forgetting to punch girlfriends child social security number so Hesscared of filling out a 1040x and get problems from the IRS. He has the child’s SS card and birth certificate receipts for diapers, clothes, medical supplies outside of her pediatrician or the hospital. He doesn't want to be audited for this year and or know he’s been doing it wrong all these years and get prosecuted..,what does he do and what is his best option
