My disabled/dependent sister whom I claimed as my dependent passed away in 2016, can I claim her for this year's taxes?

My dependent sister, that I have been claiming as a dependent, passed away in May of 2016, can I claim her on my 2016 taxes this year?

Get your taxes done using TurboTax

Yes, If your sister met the qualifications that are required by the IRS to be claimed as a dependent, then you can claim her, even she passed away.
