I was just wondering if my mom qualified for the: Not a dependent ( EIC / Child Care Credit only ). I did not understand the intent to action part.
No. As I said in my first reply, that rule that allows that is the "Special rule for divorced or separated parents that live apart".
The "live apart" requires that they did not live together at any time during the last 6 months of the year as I said above. Since they both live with the child, they do not meet the requirement.
